Assessing genomic diversity and signatures of selection in Jiaxian Red cattle using whole-genome sequencing data

Abstract Background Native cattle breeds are an important source of genetic variation because they might carry alleles that enable them to adapt to local environment and tough feeding conditions. Jiaxian Red, a Chinese native cattle breed, is reported to have originated from crossbreeding between ta...
