Abstract:The evolutionary origin and genetic architecture of domestic animals are becoming more tractable as the availability of more domestic species genomes. Evolutionary studies of wild and domestic organisms have yielded many fascinating discoveries, while the stories behind the species diversity of Anas or the domestication of duck were largely unknown. Here, we assembled eight chromosome-level Anas genomes. Together with our recently available Pekin duck genome, we investigated Anas phylogeny, genetic differentia… Show more
