Genomic analysis identified a potential novel molecular mechanism for high-altitude adaptation in sheep at the Himalayas

Sheep has successfully adapted to the extreme high-altitude Himalayan region. To identify genes underlying such adaptation, we genotyped genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of four major sheep breeds living at different altitudes in Nepal and downloaded SNP array data from additional...
