  • Post-Genotyping Optimization of Dataset Formation
    Pogorevc et al. BMC Genomics (2021) 22:546 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-021-07802-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Post-genotyping optimization of dataset formation could affect genetic diversity parameters: an example of analyses with alpine goat breeds Neža Pogorevc1†, Mojca Simčič1†, Negar Khayatzadeh2, Johann Sölkner2, Beate Berger3, Danijela Bojkovski1, Minja Zorc1, Peter Dovč1, Ivica Medugorac4 and Simon Horvat1* Abstract Background: Local breeds retained unique genetic variability important for adaptive potential especially in light of challenges related to climate change. Our first objective was to perform, for the first time, a genome-wide diversity characterization using Illumina GoatSNP50 BeadChip of autochthonous Drežnica goat breed from Slovenia, and five and one local breeds from neighboring Austria and Italy, respectively. For optimal conservation and breeding programs of endangered local breeds, it is important to detect past admixture events and strive for preservation of purebred representatives of each breed with low or without admixture. In the second objective, we hence investigated the effect of inclusion or exclusion of outliers from datasets on genetic diversity and population structure parameters. Results: Distinct genetic origin of the Drežnica goat was demonstrated as having closest nodes to Austrian and Italian breeds. A phylogenetic study of these breeds with other goat breeds having SNP data available in the DRYA D repository positioned them in the alpine, European and global context. Swiss breeds clustered with cosmopolitan alpine breeds and were closer to French and Spanish breeds. On the other hand, the Drežnica goat, Austrian and Italian breeds were closer to Turkish breeds. Datasets where outliers were excluded affected estimates of genetic diversity parameters within the breed and increased the pairwise genetic distances between most of the breeds.

  • Genetic Diversity Analyses Reveal First Insights Into Breed‐Specific
    doi: 10.1111/age.12476 Genetic diversity analyses reveal first insights into breed-specific selection signatures within Swiss goat breeds † ‡ ‡ A. Burren*1, M. Neuditschko 1, H. Signer-Hasler*, M. Frischknecht*, I. Reber , F. Menzi , ‡ C. Drogem€ uller€ and C. Flury* *School of Agricultural, Forest and Food Sciences HAFL, Bern University of Applied Sciences, Langgasse€ 85, 3052 Zollikofen, Switzerland. † ‡ Swiss National Stud Farm, Agroscope Research Station, Les Longs-Pres, 1580 Avenches, Switzerland. Institute of Genetics, Vetsuisse Faculty, University of Bern, Bremgartenstrasse 109, 3001 Bern, Switzerland. Summary We used genotype data from the caprine 50k Illumina BeadChip for the assessment of genetic diversity within and between 10 local Swiss goat breeds. Three different cluster methods allowed the goat samples to be assigned to the respective breed groups, whilst the samples of Nera Verzasca and Tessin Grey goats could not be differentiated from each other. The results of the different genetic diversity measures show that Appenzell, Toggenburg, Valais and Booted goats should be prioritized in future conservation activities. Furthermore, we examined runs of homozygosity (ROH) and compared genomic inbreeding coefficients based on ROH (FROH) with pedigree-based inbreeding coefficients (FPED). The linear relationship between FROH and FPED was confirmed for goats by including samples from the three main breeds (Saanen, Chamois and Toggenburg goats). FROH appears to be a suitable measure for describing levels of inbreeding in goat breeds with missing pedigree information. Finally, we derived selection signatures between the breeds. We report a total of 384 putative selection signals. The 25 most significant windows contained genes known for traits such as: coat color variation (MITF, KIT, ASIP), growth (IGF2, IGF2R, HRAS, FGFR3) and milk composition (PITX2).

"Toggy" "Star" & "Luna" "Gale" "Samantha" At Madison Fields, we have three types of dairy goats: Toggenburg, Nubian, and Saanen. Each breed of goat boasts different characteristics, dispositions, and features that distinguish them from one another. Let’s meet the goats at Madison Fields! Toggenburg: The Toggenburg goat is the oldest known dairy goat breed, officially becoming recognized as a breed in 1892. The breed originated from the Toggenburg valley in Switzerland and is named after the region. Toggenburgs are medium in size and typically have soft, fine, flat, short or medium-length hair. Their color ranges from light tan to dark chocolate brown, and they typically have some white markings, either on their legs, face, or tail. Their ears stand tall (rather than floppy), and they range in weight from 120 pounds to just over 200 pounds. They are generally friendly and gentle and make great pets, in addition to suppliers of fresh goat milk! Nubian: The Anglo-Nubian goat (“Nubian”) is a breed of domestic goat that was originated in England during the nineteenth century. Nubians are a cross between native British goats and a mixed population of long-eared goats from India, the Middle East, and North Africa. The breed was introduced to the United States for its milk and meat. Nubians are characterized by their long, wide drooping ears, short, glossy coats, and large, almond-shaped eyes.
