DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.604235
Abstract: Long-term natural and artificial selection leads to change in certain regions of the genome, resulting in selection signatures that can reveal genes associated with selected traits, such as horns (i.e., polled/horned), high-quality wool traits, and… read more here.
