Detection of Selection Signatures Underlying Production and Adaptive Traits Based on Whole-Genome Sequencing of Six Donkey Populations

摘要

After a long period of artificial selection, the donkey now presents a variety of body types and production performance values. In this experiment, we performed selective signal scanning on the second-generation resequencing data of six different varieties. The regions and candidate genes related to artificial selection were identified to provide reference for future breeding.
