Abstract Background In the Neolithic, domestic sheep migrated into Europe and
subsequently spread in westerly and northwesterly directions. Reconstruction of these …

Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infections have negative impacts on animal health, welfare
and production. Information from molecular studies can highlight the underlying genetic …

Отмечено широкое варьирование по признаку “содержание микро-и макроэлементов”
как между подвидами, так и внутри видов и сортов риса. Магний как кофактор участвует …

In this study, we investigated how IBD patterns shared between individuals of the same
breed could be informative of its admixture level, with the underlying assumption that the …

Wallachian and Sumava sheep are autochthonous breeds that have undergone a significant
bottleneck effect and subsequent restoration efforts. The first objective of this study was to …

Simple Summary The degree of relationship among livestock breeds can be quantified by
the Fst statistic, which measures the extent of genetic differentiation between them. An Fst …

Under a climate change perspective, the genetic make-up of local livestock breeds showing
adaptive traits should be explored and preserved as a priority. We used genotype data from …

By their paternal transmission, Y‐chromosomal haplotypes are sensitive markers of
population history and male‐mediated introgression. Previous studies identified biallelic …

Knowledge of population structure is essential to improve the management and
conservation of farm animal genetic resources. Microsatellites, which have long been …

Recently DNA-based genetic purity determination tools have gained popularity, especially,
in small ruminants like sheep. The objective of the present study was to select breed-specific …
