Genetic diversity and admixture analysis of Ethiopian fat-tailed and awassi sheep using snp markers for designing crossbreeding schemes
The aims of the thesis were to select small cost effective set of SNP markers for estimation of admixture level and to identify optimal levels of Awassi admixture for the on-going crossbreeding program that has been run in farmer’s villages in the highlands of Ethiopia since 1997. Improved Awassi (I...
