Evidence for pleiotropism and recent selection in the PLAG1 region in Australian Beef cattle.

abstract：:RNA editing is a post-transcription maturation process that diversifies genomically encoded information and can lead to transcriptome diversity. Thanks to next-generation sequencing technologies, a large number of editing sites have been identified in different species. Although this mechanism is well described in mam...
