Copy number variation (CNV) might be one of the main contributors to phenotypic diversity
and evolutionary adaptation in animals and plants, employing a wide variety of mechanisms …

Background Copy number variation (CNV) is a major source of structural variants and has
been commonly identified in mammalian genome. It is associated with gene expression and …

Copy number variations (CNVs) affect a wide range of phenotypic traits; however, CNVs in
or near segmental duplication regions are often intractable. Using a read depth approach …

Background Copy number variation (CNV) represents another important source of genetic
variation complementary to single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). High-density SNP array …

Background New advances in high-throughput technologies have allowed for the massive
analysis of genomic data, providing new opportunities for the characterization of the …

Background Copy number variable regions (CNVRs) can result in drastic phenotypic
differences and may therefore be subject to selection during domestication. Studying copy …

Abstract Background Copy number variations (CNVs) are widespread in the human or
animal genome and are a significant source of genetic variation, which has been …

Background In recent years, genome-wide association studies have successfully uncovered
single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with complex traits such as diseases …

Abstract Background Copy number variations (CNVs) are important and widely distributed in
the genome. CNV detection opens a new avenue for exploring genes associated with …

The diversity and population genetics of copy number variation (CNV) in domesticated
animals are not well understood. In this study, we analysed 75 genomes of major taurine …
