The Genome Sequence of Taurine Cattle: A Window to Ruminant Biology and Evolution

Christine G. Elsik, +328 more
- 24 Apr 2009 - 
TL;DR: To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to about sevenfold coverage and provides a resource for understanding mammalian evolution and accelerating livestock genetic improvement for milk and meat production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tracing European founder lineages in the Near Eastern mtDNA pool.

TL;DR: There has been substantial back-migration into the Near East, there was a founder effect or bottleneck associated with the Last Glacial Maximum, 20,000 years ago, and a way to account for multiple dispersals of common sequence types is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-Wide Survey of SNP Variation Uncovers the Genetic Structure of Cattle Breeds

Richard A. Gibbs, +103 more
- 24 Apr 2009 - 
TL;DR: Data show that cattle have undergone a rapid recent decrease in effective population size from a very large ancestral population, possibly due to bottlenecks associated with domestication, selection, and breed formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for two independent domestications of cattle

TL;DR: Application of a molecular clock suggests that the two major mtDNA clades diverged at least 200,000, and possibly as much as 1 million, years ago, as evidence for two separate domestication events of different subspecies of the aurochs, Bos primigenius and Bos taurus.
