Signatures of selection in the genome of Swedish warmblood horses selected for sport performance
2019
Abstract Background A growing demand for improved physical skills and mental attitude in modern sport horses has led to strong selection for performance in many warmblood studbooks. The aim of this study was to detect genomic regions with low diversity, and therefore potentially under selection, in Swedish Warmblood horses (SWB) by analysing high-density SNP data. To investigate if such signatures could be the result of selection for equestrian sport performance, we compared our SWB SNP data with those from Exmoor ponies, a horse breed not selected for sport performance traits. Results The genomic scan for homozygous regions identified long runs of homozygosity (ROH) shared by more than 85%…

Additional file 1: Fig. S1. Incidence of each single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in ROH in the SWB horses and Exmoor ponies. Genomic positions highlighted in green represent SNPs in a homozygous segment shared in over 85% of the SWB horses (a) and Exmoor ponies (b). The blue line shows the threshold for SNPs present in more than 80% of the horses and the red line shows the average value (22%) of SNP incidence in homozygous segment in SWB horses and (51%) in Exmoor ponies.
