Figure 1. Samples distribution and population structure.

Figure 1

(a) Distribution of goats sampled. The IMCG, which are white in color and are used in cashmere production, were from Alashan, Inner Mongolia, in the north of China (~1304 meters’ altitude). IMCG had relatively low fecundity (~105%) compared with DBG (~272%), which are primarily used for producing meat and are raised in Chongqing in the southwest of China (267~934 meters altitude). The geographic map was drawn by R software (https://www.r-project.org/). (b) PCA plot of two goat breeds. (c) Geneticstructure of two populations. Each color represents a cluster and each bar represents an individual. (d) NJ phylogenetic tree of 12 individuals. All pictures were modified by Adobe Photoshop CS5 (http://www.adobe.com/).
