Heterozygosity-Rich Regions in Canine Genome: Can They Serve as Indicators of Balancing Selection?
Compared to the negative effect of directional selection on genetic diversity, balancing selection acts oppositely and maintains variability across the genome. This study aims to articulate whether balancing selection leads to heterozygosity-rich region islands (HRRIs) forming in the canine genome b...
