<h4>Background</h4>Domestic goats (Capra hircus) have been selected to play an essential role in agricultural production systems, since being domesticated from their wild progenitor, bezoar (Capra aegagrus). A detailed understanding of the genetic consequences imparted by the domestication process remains a key goal of evolutionary genomics.<h4>Results</h4>We constructed the reference genome of bezoar and sequenced representative breeds of domestic goats to search for genomic changes that likely ...[more]
