An Assessment of Population Structure in Eight Breeds of Cattle Using a Whole Genome SNP Panel
Download2008
Schnabel, R. D., Wang, Z., Taylor, J. F., Gill, C. A., Van Tassell, C. P., Gao, C., Aerts, J., Williams, J. L., Neto, E. D., Murdoch, B. M., Matukumalli, L. K., Coppieters, W., McKay, S. D., Mannenl, H., Crews, D., Moore, S. S.
Background Analyses of population structure and breed diversity have provided insight into the origin and evolution of cattle. Previously, these studies have used a low density of microsatellite markers, however, with the large number of single nucleotide polymorphism markers that are now...

Depauperate genetic variability detected in the American and European bison using genomic techniques
Download2009
Tokarska, M., Demontis, D., Wójcik, J.M., Gregersen, V.R., Loeschcke, V., Pertoldi, C., Coltman, D.
A total of 929 polymorphic SNPs in EB (out of 54, 000 SNPs screened using a BovineSNP50 Illumina Genotyping BeadChip), and 1, 524 and 1, 403 polymorphic SNPs in WB and PB, respectively, were analysed. EB, WB and PB have all undergone recent drastic reductions in population size. Accordingly, they...

Genome-wide analysis of zygotic linkage disequilibrium and its components in crossbred cattle
Download2012
Jiang, Q., Wang, Z., Yang, R. C., Moore, S. S.
Background Linkage disequilibrium (LD) between genes at linked or independent loci can occur at gametic and zygotic levels known asgametic LD and zygotic LD, respectively. Gametic LD is well known for its roles in fine-scale mapping of quantitative trait loci, genomic selection and evolutionary...

Kolbehdari, D., Stothard, P., Schnabel, R., Wang, Z., Marques, E., Taylor, J. F., Moore, S. S.
Background Linkage disequilibrium (LD) maps can provide a wealth of information on specific marker-phenotype relationships, especially in areas of the genome where positional candidate genes with similar functions are located. A recently published high resolution radiation hybrid map of bovine...

Plastow, G., Lu, D., Miller, S., Moore, S., Vander Voort, G., Wang Z., Sargolzaei, M., Li, C., Kelly, M.
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) and the persistence of its phase across populations are important for genomic selection as well as fine scale mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL). However, knowledge of LD in beef cattle, as well as the persistence of LD phase between crossbreds (C) and purebreds,...

Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) were among the first large mammals to be assessed for genetic variation in the wild, and they remain a common subject of genetics studies. Although recent advances in genotyping technology have allowed for more accurate determination of population structure and the...

Repurposing population genetics data to discern genomic architecture: A case study of linkage cohort detection in mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae)
Download2019-01-01
Trevoy, Stephen A.L., Janes, Jasmine K., Muirhead, Kevin, Sperling, Felix A. H.
Genetic surveys of the population structure of species can be used as resources for exploring their genomic architecture. By adjusting filtering assumptions, genomewide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) datasets can be reused to give new insights into the genetic basis of divergence and...

Structural variant detection by large-scale sequencing reveals new evolutionary evidence on breed divergence between Chinese and European pigs
Download2016
Liu, Jian-Feng, Fan, Ziyao, Li, Junhui, Wang, Jiafu, Wang, Zhiquan, Zhao, Pengju, Kang, Huimin, Zhang, Qin, Yin, Zongjun, Wang, Haifei
In this study, we performed a genome-wide SV detection among the genomes of thirteen pigs from diverse Chinese and European originated breeds by next genetation sequencing, and constrcuted a single-nucleotide resolution map involving 56,930 putative SVs. We firstly identified a SV hotspot...
