GENETIC HISTORY OF SHEEP DOMESTICATION
Eurasian Journal of Applied Biotechnology, 2018 Domestication of sheep in the Fertile Crescent region of the Near East is an important evolutionary and historical event. Modern DNA analysis of sheep remains can complement knowledge obtained through morphological analysis at archaeological sites. In particular, investigation of mitochondrial DNA and endogenous retroviral sequences are widely used for
