Genome-wide identification of selection signatures across altitudinal gradients in dairy sheep breeds
Abstract Deciphering the genetic mechanisms of adaptation in livestock species is important in ensuring sustainability of livestock production in the context of climatic change. Here, we aimed to identify signatures of selection within Sarda and Valle del Belice, the two major Italian dairy sheep br...
