Recent artificial selection in U.S. Jersey cattle impacts autozygosity levels of specific genomic regions

BACKGROUND: Genome signatures of artificial selection in U.S. Jersey cattle were identified by examining changes in haplotype homozygosity for a resource population of animals born between 1953 and 2007. Genetic merit of this population changed dramatically during this period for a number of traits,...
