| Description |
Cattle are considered to be the most desirable livestock by small scale farmers. In Africa, although comprehensive genomic studies have been carried out on cattle, the genetic variations in indigenous cattle from Nigeria have not been fully explored. In this study, whole genome-wide analysis by sequencing of 5 Nigerian zebu was used to reveal new insights on the history of West African zebu. we also revealed the crosstalk between heterologous mitochondria and nuclear genomes |
