The current large spectrum of sheep phenotypic diversity results from the combined product selection for different production traits such as wool, milk and meat, its natural adaptation to new environments. In this study, we scanned genome 25 Sasi Ardi 75 Latxa Western Pyrenees three types regions under selection: (1) underlying local semi-feral sheep, (2) related a long traditional dairy pressure in (3) experiencing specific effect modern genetic improvement program established breed during...

With numerous endemic subspecies representing four of its five evolutionary lineages, Europe holds a large fraction Apis mellifera genetic diversity. This diversity and the natural distribution range have been altered by anthropogenic factors. The conservation this heritage relies on availability accurate tools for diagnosis. Based pool-sequence data from 2145 worker bees 22 populations sampled across Europe, we employed two highly discriminative approaches (PCA FST) to select most...

Genome-resolved metagenomics, based on shotgun sequencing, has become a powerful strategy for investigating animal-associated bacterial communities, due its heightened capability delivering detailed taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional insights compared to amplicon sequencing-based approaches. While genome-resolved metagenomics holds promise across various non-lethal sample types, their effectiveness in yielding high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes remains largely unexplored. Our...

Whole-genome sequencing has become routine for population genetic studies. Sequencing of individuals provides maximal data but is rather expensive and fewer samples can be studied. In contrast, a pool (pool-seq) provide sufficient data, while presenting less an economic challenge. Few studies have compared the two approaches to infer structure diversity in real datasets. Here, we apply individual (ind-seq) pool-seq study Western honey bees (

Tench (Tinca tinca L.) has great economic potential due to its high rate of fecundity and long-life span. Population genetic studies based on allozymes, microsatellites, PCR-RFLP sequence analysis genes DNA fragments have revealed the presence Eastern Western phylogroups. However, lack genomic resources for this species complicated development markers. In study, tench transcriptome genome were sequenced by high-throughput sequencing. A total 60,414 putative SNPs identified in using a...

For population genetic studies in nonmodel organisms, it is important to use every single source of genomic information. This paper presents EXFI, a Python pipeline that predicts the splice graph and exon sequences using an assembled transcriptome raw whole-genome sequencing reads. The main algorithm uses Bloom filters remove reads are not part transcriptome, predict intron-exon boundaries, then proceed call exons from assembly, generate underlying graph. results returned GFA1 format, which...

European sardine or pilchard is a planktonic small pelagic fish present from the North Sea in Europe to coast of Senegal Africa, and across Mediterranean sea Black Sea. Ecologically, sardines are an intermediary link trophic network, preying on plankton being predated by larger fishes, marine mammals, seabirds. This species great nutritional economic value as cheap but rich source protein fat. It either consumed directly humans fed fishmeal for aquaculture farm animals. Despite its...
