Identification of selection signatures in Iranian dromedary and Bactrian camels using whole genome sequencing data [PDF]
The Old World camels play an important role as one of the main food sources in large parts of Asia and Africa. Natural selection combined with artificial selection by human has affected parts of the domestic animal genome for adapting them to their ...

Viral Metagenomic Analysis Reveals High Prevalence of Dromedary Camel Bocavirus and Porcine Astrovirus in Bactrian Camel Intestinal Tissue [PDF]
Bactrian camels (Camelus bactrianus) are economically vital livestock in arid regions; however, their intestinal virome is poorly understood. We employed viral metagenomics to analyze intestinal tissue samples from deceased camels at a breeding facility ...
