Abstract Visible pigmentation phenotypes can be used to explore the regulation of gene expression and evolution coat color patterns in animals. Here, we performed whole-genome RNA sequencing applied genome-wide association study, comparative population genomics biological experiments show that 2,809-bp-long LINE-1 insertion ASIP (agouti signaling protein) is causative mutation for white phenotype swamp buffalo (Bubalus bubalis). This (3′ truncated containing only 5′ UTR) functions as a...
Objective: Estimating the genetic diversity and structures, both within among chicken breeds, is critical for identification conservation of valuable resources. In chickens, microsatellite (MS) marker polymorphisms have previously been widely used to evaluate these distinctions. Our objective was analyze relationships 22 breeds in Asia based on allelic frequencies.Methods: We 469 genomic DNA samples from eight Asian countries (South Korea, KNG, KNB, KNR, KNW, KNY, KNO; Laos, LYO, LCH, LBB,...
