Abstract:

With the rapid advancement of high-throughput sequencing technologies and the deepening of genomic research, an increasing number of genomic data from livestock and poultry have been made publicly available, significantly enhancing the study of important economic traits at the whole-genome level. Whole-genome resequencing technology is extensively utilized in genomic selection, population structure analysis, genetic diversity assessment, and evolutionary mechanism studies, particularly demonstrating significant value in elucidating how genomic sequence variations influence economic traits. This article aims to review the application progress of whole-genome resequencing technology in the study of genetic structure, genetic diversity, origin and evolution, adaptive traits, and important economic traits in local yellow cattle populations, providing crucial references for the improvement and conservation of local yellow cattle genetic resources.

Key words: Chinese indigenous yellow cattle, whole genome resequencing, population genetic structure, economic traits, genetic diversity
