Sentence examples for morphological breeds from inspiring English sources

These findings are consistent with the recent hypothesis that the recent breeding events may have played a substantial role in the evolution of morphological breeds of domestic animals [ 34], probably due to a general relaxation of selective constraints in the wild animals [ 35]. aFu's Fs test (Fu, 1997); No, the number of the sampled individuals **Significant Fu's Fs values (P < 0.01).

For domestic yaks, the mixtures of maternal lineages found in most morphological breeds are mainly due to the common presence of both lineages in the wild populations and the limited distribution of wild yaks in the QTP.

This pattern suggests that mapping of morphology of each breed to the maternal phylogeny is impossible because most clades comprise more than one breed and some haplotypes were shared by all morphological breeds.

The specific goals of this study were to: (1) characterize the maternal diversity of the domestic yaks; (2) examine origins of the main lineages and clades and their correlations with morphological breeds; and (3) explain the probable domestication time of this large animal in the arid QTP based on the genetic calibration obtained in the present study and the available archaeological data.

There is also no clear correlation between the mtDNA phylogenetic clades and the 10 morphological types (breeds) of yaks sampled (Table 3), except that haplotypes of the Huanhu breed nested within one of the two main lineages, in Clades A and B. The haplotypes of all other breeds were found to cluster within clades from both of the two deeply divergent lineages.

The dogs, on the other hand, must, in spite of great morphological differences between breeds, constitute one species because of their interfertility.

Dairy cattle, as a domestic species allow the testing of a good sample size and provide a large variety of test stimuli due to the morphological diversity of breeds.

These groups were found to be meaningful according to the use of breeds, morphological characteristics and/or geographical origins.

The morphological differences between breeds are so large that they easily exceed the differentiation between all species in the Family Canidae [ 26, 27], and probably no other vertebrate has comparable phenotypic diversity.

Grazing animals take advantage of resource diversity to maintain daily intake (Agreil et al., 2005) and performance (Dumont et al., 2007a), with contrasting effects of selective grazing according to breed morphological and physiological traits.

Through the annotation of the Jindo dog short-read genome data, we identified unique olfactory receptor genes, SNPs located in olfactory receptor genes and CDS regions of genes that are associated with genetic diseases and morphological development and breed-specific Jindo SNP genotypes in the mitochondrial genome sequence.
