TABLE 3.

Selection signatures identified in the West-Central African goat and East-African goat by LFMM following the infestation ranking and PCAdapt.

Each signature was named according to the gene(s) most likely targeted by the selection process, taking into account the distance of the SNPs from the genes, the associated p-values, and the number of SNPs near or in the gene(s); in bold, the most likely targeted genes when there are several. All annotated genes associated with each selection signature are highlighted in Supplementary Table 3.

¹Identified by Bayescan.

²Identified by HAPFLK.

³Identified by LFMM considering the climatic gradient.

Signatures underlined were not identified in the literature as linked to climatic adaptation. Chr.: chromosome number.
