Whole-Genome Resequencing of Red Junglefowl and Indigenous Village Chicken Reveal New Insights on the Genome Dynamics of the Species
The red junglefowl Gallus gallus is the main progenitor of domestic chicken, the
commonest livestock species, outnumbering humans by an approximate ratio of six
to one. The genetic control for production traits have been ...
Mitochondrial DNA variation reveals maternal origins and demographic dynamics of Ethiopian indigenous goats
The Horn of Africa forms one of the two main historical entry points of domestics
into the continent and Ethiopia is particularly important in this regard. Through the
analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) d-loop
region ...
Polymorphisms in MC1R and ASIP Genes are Associated with Coat Color Variation in the Arabian Camel
Pigmentation in mammals is primarily determined by the distribution of eumelanin and
pheomelanin, the ratio of which is mostly controlled by the activity of melanocortin 1 receptor
(MC1R) and agouti signaling protein (ASIP) ...
