| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aims of this study are development of Indel markers and estimation of gene flow and admixture in cattle. After we carried out whole genome resequencing for zebu cattle, we developed 58 Indel markers. We performed population analysis for Bos taurus and Bos indicus populations using these markers. The results showed that Bos indicus have had gene flow and genetic admixture from Bos taurus in early domestication period.
