Signature of Selection Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Related to Climate Adaptation and Production Traits in Lao Native Goats Open

Sang V. Le, Panoraia Alexandri, J. H. J. van der Werf, Luisa Olmo, Stephen W. Walkden‐Brown , et al. · 2025

Detecting selection footprints offers valuable insight into evolutionary processes and the mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity in selected traits. Domestication, natural and artificial selection, and breeding have produced indigenou…

Genetic diversity, population structure and origin of the native goats in Central Laos Open

Sang V. Le, Sara de las Heras‐Saldana, Panoraia Alexandri, Luisa Olmo, Stephen W. Walkden‐Brown , et al. · 2024

Maintaining genetic diversity and variation in livestock populations is critical for natural and artificial selection promoting genetic improvement while avoiding problems due to inbreeding. In Laos, there are concerns that there has been …

Correction to: Genome-wide SNP data unveils the globalization of domesticated pigs Open

Bin Yang, Leilei Cui, Miguel Pérez‐Enciso, Aleksei Traspov, R.P.M.A. Crooijmans , et al. · 2020

Ancient pigs reveal a near-complete genomic turnover following their introduction to Europe Open

Laurent Frantz, James Haile, Audrey T. Lin, Amelie Scheu, Christina Geörg , et al. · 2019

Archaeological evidence indicates that pig domestication had begun by ∼10,500 y before the present (BP) in the Near East, and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) suggests that pigs arrived in Europe alongside farmers ∼8,500 y BP. A few thousand year…

Genetic profile of scrapie codons 146, 211 and 222 in the PRNP gene locus in three breeds of dairy goats Open

Sotiria Vouraki, Athanasios Ι. Gelasakis, Panoraia Alexandri, Evridiki Boukouvala, Loukia V. Ekateriniadou , et al. · 2018

Polymorphisms at PRNP gene locus have been associated with resistance against classical scrapie in goats. Genetic selection on this gene within appropriate breeding programs may contribute to the control of the disease. The present study c…

Genome-wide SNP data unveils the globalization of domesticated pigs Open

Bin Yang, Leilei Cui, Miguel Pérez‐Enciso, Aleksei Traspov, R.P.M.A. Crooijmans , et al. · 2017

Key events related to domestication, dispersal, and mixing of pigs from different regions are reflected in the 60K SNP data, including the globalization that has recently become full circle since Chinese pig breeders in the past decades st…

Data from: Genome-wide SNP data unveils the globalization of domesticated pigs Open

Bin Yang, Leilei Cui, Miguel Pérez‐Enciso, Aleksei Traspov, R.P.M.A. Crooijmans , et al. · 2017

Background: Pigs were domesticated independently in Eastern and Western Eurasia early during the agricultural revolution, and have since been transported and traded across the globe. Here, we present a worldwide survey on 60K genome-wide s…

Data from: Distinguishing migration events of different timing for wild boar in the Balkans Open

Panoraia Alexandri, Hendrik‐Jan Megens, R.P.M.A. Crooijmans, Martien A. M. Groenen, Daniël J. Goedbloed , et al. · 2016

Aim: We compared the power of different nuclear markers to investigate genetic structure of southern Balkan wild boar. We distinguished between historic events, such as isolation in different refugia during glacial periods, from recent dem…

Genomic diversity and differentiation of a managed island wild boar population Open

Laura Iacolina, Massimo Scandura, Daniël J. Goedbloed, Panoraia Alexandri, R.P.M.A. Crooijmans , et al. · 2015

The evolution of island populations in natural systems is driven by local adaptation and genetic drift. However, evolutionary pathways may be altered by humans in several ways. The wild boar (WB) (Sus scrofa) is an iconic game species occu…
