Ancient genomes revisit the ancestry of domestic and Przewalski’s horses

Charleen Gaunitz, +58 more
- 06 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: Data indicate that Przewalski’s horses are the feral descendants of horses herded at Botai and not truly wild horses, which indicates that a massive genomic turnover underpins the expansion of the horse stock that gave rise to modern domesticates, which coincides with large-scale human population expansions during the Early Bronze Age.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tracking Five Millennia of Horse Management with Extensive Ancient Genome Time Series

Antoine Fages, +135 more
- 30 May 2019 - 
TL;DR: This extensive dataset allows us to assess the modern legacy of past equestrian civilizations and finds that two extinct horse lineages existed during early domestication, and the development of modern breeding impacted genetic diversity more dramatically than the previous millennia of human management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancient genomic changes associated with domestication of the horse

TL;DR: Early domestication selection patterns supporting the neural crest hypothesis are found, which provides a unified developmental origin for common domestic traits and reveals that Iron Age Scythian steppe nomads implemented breeding strategies involving no detectable inbreeding and selection for coat-color variation and robust forelimbs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The origins and spread of domestic horses from the Western Eurasian steppes.

Pablo Librado, +178 more
- 01 Jan 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify the Western Eurasian steppes, especially the lower Volga-Don region, as the homeland of modern domestic horses and map the population changes accompanying domestication from 273 ancient horse genomes.
