Genome-wide analysis reveals the ancient and recent admixture history of East African Shorthorn Zebu from Western Kenya
The Kenyan East African zebu cattle are valuable and widely used genetic resources. Previous studies using microsatellite loci revealed the complex history of these populations with the presence of taurine and zebu genetic backgrounds. Here, we estimate at genome-wide level the genetic composition a...
