Whole-genome Resequencing Provides Insights into the Population Structure and Domestication Signatures of Ducks in Eastern China

Abstract: Background: Ducks are an ancient domesticated animal with high economic value, uesd for its meat, eggs, and feathers. However, the origin of indigenous Chines ducks remains elusive. To address this question, we performed whole-genome resequencing to explore the genetic relationships among the domestic ducks and wild ducks in eastern China and to identify the genomic differences shaped by artificial selections. Results: The whole genomes of 60 ducks from eastern China were sequenced, with an average effective s… Show more
