From: A genome-wide perspective about the diversity and demographic history of seven Spanish goat breeds
Multidimensional scaling plot for 12 caprine populations. Caprine populations analysed: Spain (Bermeya, Blanca de Rasquera, Malagueña, Murciano-Granadina, Florida, Mallorquina and Palmera), Tunisia, Burkina Faso (Sahel and Djallonké), Romania (Carpathian) and Switzerland (Saanen). This analysis is based on genome-wide identity-by-state pairwise distances calculated with the PLINK software [11] on the basis of 39,257 SNPs. Three main clusters are observed: (1) Spanish and European breeds, (2) African breeds, and (3) the Palmera breed from the Canary Islands
