Genetic admixture, inbreeding and heritability estimates in captive African cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) including linkage analysis for the King cheetah phenotype

This multifaceted study primarily aimed at understanding the genetic make-up of captive versus wild cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) populations in South Africa, with a specific emphasis on a valuable gene pool of a recessive phenotype that is increasingly being maintained in captive population country-wi...
