Genome-wide patterns of homozygosity provide clues about the population history and adaptation of goats

Abstract Background Patterns of homozygosity can be influenced by several factors, such as demography, recombination, and selection. Using the goat SNP50 BeadChip, we genotyped 3171 goats belonging to 117 populations with a worldwide distribution. Our objectives were to characterize the number and l...
