From: Patterns of homozygosity in insular and continental goat breeds

Fig. 2

Number and total length of ROH in African, European and Mediterranean insular and continental goat populations. Red and dark blue indicate insular and continental breeds, respectively, with a high level of homozygosity. Pink and light blue indicate insular and continental breeds, respectively, with a low or moderate level of homozygosity. The number of ROH found for each individual genome (y-axis) is plotted against total ROH size (i.e. number of Mb covered by ROH in each genome, x-axis). The following codes are used (insular populations in bold): AND, Androy (Madagascar); ARG, Argentata (Sicily); ARR, Arran (Ireland); ASP, Aspromontana; BLB, Bilberry (Ireland); CCG, Ciociara Grigia; CRS, Corse (Corsica); DIA, Diana (Madagascar); DKL, Danish Landrace; DUL, Dutch Landrace; FIN, Finnish Landrace; FSS, Fosses; GGT, Girgentana (Sicily); ICL, Icelandic goats (Iceland); MAL, Mallorquina (Mallorca); MEN, Menabe (Madagascar); MLS, Maltese Sarda (Sardinia); MOR, Moroccan goat; MTB, Matebele; MUL, Mulranny (Ireland); PAL, Palmera (La Palma); RAS, Blanca de Rasquera; SAR, Sarda (Sardinia); SOF, Sofia (Madagascar); SOU, SudOuest (Madagascar)
