Herding dogs exhibit a distinct constellation of behaviors marked by inherent instinct and motor skills that manipulate guide livestock in response to instructive commands cues. Comparison the whole-genome sequences herding nonherding breeds reveals signatures positive selection associated with pathways underlying social interaction cognitive functions. Of strong selective sweep signals, haplotypes within ephrin type-B receptor 1 (EPHB1), which is linked locomotor hyperactivity spatial...
This study explores the phylogeny of Korean native black goats through analysis their complete mitochondrial DNA. The National Institute Animal Science has gathered genetic material on purebred from isolated regions such as Tongyeong, Dangjin, and Jangsu, is actively breeding them a national level. These populations, however, are small exhibit high inbreeding rates, highlighting urgent need to preserve diversity. haplotype diversity within this group 0.659, with 39 haplotypes identified. By...
Vascular aging plays a pivotal role in the morbidity and mortality of older people. Reactive hyperemia index (RHI) detected by pulse amplitude tonometry (PAT) is non-invasive measure vascular endothelial function aging-induced pathogenesis both microvascular macrovascular diseases. We conducted genome-wide association study (GWAS) to comprehensively identify germline genetic variants associated with Korean population, which revealed 60 suggestive genes underlying angiogenesis, inflammatory...
