Runs of homozygosity reveal signatures of positive selection for reproduction traits in breed and non-breed horses

BACKGROUND: Modern horses represent heterogeneous populations specifically selected for appearance and performance. Genomic regions under high selective pressure show characteristic runs of homozygosity (ROH) which represent a low genetic diversity. This study aims at detecting the number and functi...
