Genomic diversity of Czech and Slovak native goat breeds

Due to that Czech indigenous goat breeds, together with Slovak indigenous goat breeds, are closed population, face this population loss of genetic diversity, because these populations are closed. The aim of this study was to perform a genome-wide diversity characterization using Illumina GoatSNP50 BeadChip of indigenous Czech Braun Shorthair and White Shorthair goat breeds together with international Alpine goat from Czech Republic and indigenous White Shorthair goat breed from Slovak Republic. For comparison was in this analysis included indigenous alpine goat breed from Austria and Switzerland. To determine key conservation risk parameters, we estimated inbreeding (FROH) and current and historical effective population size (Ne). The observed estimates for Czech and Slovak indigenous breed show similar values as other alpine goat breeds. In addition, by comparing genetic differences by Neighbour-net, no differences were recorded between the Czech-Slovak WSG. The study provides data and information utilizable in the management of conservation programs planned to reduce inbreeding and to minimize loss of genetic variability.
