Ancient Homozygosity Segments in West African Djallonké Sheep Inform on the Genomic Impact of Livestock Adaptation to the Environment
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Adaptation to the challenging environment of humid Sub-Saharan West Africa is hypothesized to cause an effect on the sheep genome. This can be used to identify genomic areas of importance to adaptation to changing environments. Djallonké sheep are small-sized, hair-coated trypano tol...
