A whole genomic scan to detect selection signatures between Berkshire and Korean native pig breeds
BACKGROUND Scanning of the genome for selection signatures between breeds may play important role in understanding the underlie causes for observable phenotypic variations. The discovery of high density single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provide a useful starting point to perform genome-wide scan in pig populations in order to identify loci/candidate genes underlie phenotypic variation in p...
متن کاملwhole-genome scan of eight iranian native cattle breeds to detect selection signatures.
this study aimed to identify genes that show signatures of selection for mutations in iranian native cattle breeds. the data consisted of genotypes for ~777962 snp markers of 90 animals from eight iranian native cattle breeds distributing over the country. therefore, the aim was to identifying divergently selected regions of the genome. study of population differentiation across the genome usin...
متن کاملA genome-wide scan to detect signatures of recent selection in Australian Merino sheep
Domestication and selection are processes that conserve the pattern of genetic diversities between and within populations. Identification of genomic regions that are targets of selection for phenotypic traits is one of the main aims of research in animal genetics. An approach for identifying divergently selected regions of the genome is to compare FST values among loci to estimate the genetic v...
متن کاملLength polymorphism in OGT between Korean native pig, Chinese Meishan, and the Western pig breeds
BACKGROUND The Korean native pig (KNP) is generally thought to have come from northern China to the Korean peninsula approximately 2000 years ago. KNP pigs were at the brink of extinction in the 1980s, since then efforts have been made to restore the breed by bringing together the remaining stocks in South Korea. As a result, KNP was registered as a breed in 2006. To find additional breed-speci...
متن کاملWhole-genome resequencing analyses of five pig breeds, including Korean wild and native, and three European origin breeds
Pigs have been one of the most important sources of meat for humans, and their productivity has been substantially improved by recent strong selection. Here, we present whole-genome resequencing analyses of 55 pigs of five breeds representing Korean native pigs, wild boar and three European origin breeds. 1,673.1 Gb of sequence reads were mapped to the Swine reference assembly, covering ∼99.2% ...
