Genetic characterisation of Germanata Veneta and Mignon local duck breeds (Anas platyrhynchos) using whole-genome sequencing

This study investigated the genetic diversity and conservation status of two endangered Italian duck breeds: Germanata Veneta (GER, n = 50) and Mignon (MIG, n = 50). The DNA was extracted from blood and analysed through whole-genome sequencing. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) calling allowe...
