Table 1 Identified SCR classified in three groups: (A) specific to Sasi Ardi (SAS) sheep based on the outliers for Z(Hp) and Z(Dp) distribution, (B) common to the two Latxa populations (LAS and LAN) based on the outliers for Z(Hp) and Z(Dp) distribution, and (C) based on the outliers for Z(Fstp) distribution when comparing both Latxa sheep populations (LAS vs. LAN)
