Probably, breeding decisions promoting the crosses between zebu-like and taurinecattle are underlying this geographical pattern of variation.
2
The similarity between B. primigenius and modern taurinecattle confirms that these should be considered members of a single species.
3
European cattle diversity is generally dominated by taurinecattle, although elevated levels of indicine ancestry have been recorded in several breeds from southern Europe.
4
In this study, whole-genome re-sequencing data from indicine and Brazilian locally adapted taurinecattle breeds were used to detect genomic regions under selective pressure.
1
In this respect, Europeancattle-raisers have long taken the precedence of our own.
2
I nominate the aurochs, the giant ancestor of modern Europeancattle.
3
BVDV-1 is the predominant type circulating in Europeancattle population.
4
Genetic relationships among 37 Europeancattle breeds were investigated using blood group and serum protein polymorphisms.
5
However, the extent to which non-European cattle ancestry is diffused across southern Europeancattle has not been investigated thoroughly.
