Genomic evidence of positive selection highlights functional divergence associated with environmental resilience in central and West African indigenous cattle

African indigenous cattle harbor rich genetic diversity shaped by long-term adaptation to tropical climates and endemic diseases, notably trypanosomiasis. To investigate the genetic basis of natural disease resistance, we analyzed 33,147 SNPs in 1,047 individuals from 17 breeds using complementary s...
