Convergent genomic signatures of domestication in sheep and goats

Convergent genomic signatures of domestication in sheep and goats

The sheep and goat were domesticated ~10,500 years ago in the same region of the Middle-East. Here, Alberto et al compare the genomes of wild Asiatic mouflon and Bezoar ibex with that of domestics from local, traditional and improved breeds and find common targets of selection related to domesticati...
