Whole genome sequencing reveals signals of adaptive admixture in Creole cattle [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 The Creole cattle from Guadeloupe (GUA) are well adapted to the tropical environment. Its admixed genome likely played an important role in such adaptation. Here, we sought to detect genomic signatures of selection in the GUA genome. For this purpose, we

African matrilineages in American Creole cattle: evidence of two independent continental sources [PDF]
Animal Genetics, 2006 SummaryIn order to clarify the historical origin and phylogeographic affinities of Creole cattle matrilineages throughout the American continent, we analysed published D‐loop mtDNA sequences (n = 454) from Creole, Iberian and African cattle breeds. The Western European T3 haplogroup was the most common in American Creole cattle (63.6%), followed by the

Incidence of 1/29 translocation in Bolivian Creole and Brahman Yacumeño cattle
Theriogenology, 2002 In Bolivia, four different Creole cattle breeds can be found, as well as other European and Zebu breeds adapted to local environments. The relationship between the occurrence of the 1/29 translocation and subfertility is well known, and analysis of Y chromosome morphology is useful to determine a possible introgression with Bos indicus.

A Partial African Ancestry for the Creole Cattle Populations of the Caribbean [PDF]
Journal of Heredity, 2002 Seventy-eight cattle samples from three Creole Caribbean islands and one Brazilian breed were analyzed for sequence variation in the hypervariable segment of the mitochondrial DNA control region. Seventy-three samples displayed Bos taurus haplotypes, and five samples exhibited haplotypes that were of Bos indicus ancestry. Phylogenetic analysis revealed
