Autozygosity islands and ROH patterns in Nellore lineages: evidence of selection for functionally important traits

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to assess genome-wide autozygosity in a Nellore cattle population and to characterize ROH patterns and autozygosity islands that may have occurred due to selection within its lineages. It attempts also to compare estimates of inbreeding calculated from R...
