Mitochondrial DNA variation reveals maternal origins and demographic dynamics of Ethiopian indigenous goats
The Horn of Africa forms one of the two main historical entry points of domestics into the continent and Ethiopia is particularly important in this regard. Through the analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) d-loop region in 309 individuals from 13 populations, we reveal the maternal genetic variation...
