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.
6
The Namaqua cattle in size and shape nearly resemble Europeancattle, and have short stout horns and large hoofs.
7
According to Castelnau there are two races in Brazil, one like Europeancattle, the other different, with remarkable horns.
8
The majority of M. bovis strains (89%) showed spoligotype patterns that were previously observed in strains from Europeancattle.
9
The most frequent haplotypes identified in West African taurine samples were also identified in other cattle groups including Asian zebu and Europeancattle.
10
Additionally, following the divergence of African and European taurine, the gene flow between African taurine and southern Europeancattle has also been proposed.
11
Europeancattle diversity is generally dominated by taurine cattle, although elevated levels of indicine ancestry have been recorded in several breeds from southern Europe.
12
The sequences obtained from the B. taurus specimens were either identical to the reference sequence for modern Europeancattle or closely related to it.
13
A handful of ancient ox bones and the latest DNA fingerprint technology have combined to solve a puzzle - the origins of Europeancattle.
14
Using heterozygosity-based parameters, we concluded that, on average, nucleotide diversity is greater in southern Europeancattle than western European (British and commercial) cattle.
15
Results: Phylogenomic analyses place the aurochs as a distinct outgroup to the domestic B. taurus lineage, supporting the predominant Near Eastern origin of Europeancattle.
16
Additionally, we also employed unlinked and phased SNP-based approaches on high-density SNP array data to characterize non-European cattle ancestry in several southern Europeancattle breeds.
