Summary of genome-wide genetic variation in the 3 Chinese short fat-tailed sheep breeds. Chromosomes are shown in different colors in the outermost circle, and the innermost circles show the distribution of SNPs (counted in 1-Mb windows), indels (counted in 5-Mb windows) and pooled heterozygosity (H P) in 200-kb windows of the Small-tailed Han sheep (ST), Mongolian sheep (MG) and Duolang sheep (DL) genomes relative to the sheep reference genome. For SNPs and H P scores, black represents Small-tailed Han sheep, red represents Mongolian sheep, and green represents Duolang sheep. At the center of the circular map, chr. X is shown separately. A remarkably homozygous region (in gray shadow) was observed from 43 to 78 Mb in Chinese short fat-tailed sheep. This figure was created using the Circos program [60]
