Whole genome analysis of water buffalo and global cattle breeds highlights convergent signatures of domestication

The comparative genomics of domesticated lineages can yield insights into the signatures of artificial selection. This study sequences 79 water buffalo genomes from 7 breeds and reveals examples of convergent domestication at the genetic level between water buffalo and cattle.
