Assessing genomic diversity and signatures of selection in Jiaxian Red cattle using whole-genome sequencing data.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Even though microsatellite loci frequently have been isolated using recently developed next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques, this task is still difficult because of the subsequent polymorphism screening requires a substantial amount of time. Selecting appropriate polymorphic microsatellites is a criti...
