Descriptive statistics for runs of homozygosity (ROHs) in the four breeds studied1
| Breed | n | Mean length of ROHs, Mb (M ± SE) | Mean number of ROHs (M ± SE) | FROH (M ± SE) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OMF | 30 | 265.30 ± 12.21 | 125.20 ± 4.49ab | 0.283 ± 0.013 |
| RUW | 64 | 206.71 ± 4.41 | 112.80 ± 1.57c | 0.220 ± 0.005 |
| USH | 40 | 411.31 ± 13.46 | 126.50 ± 2.50a | 0.438 ± 0.014 |
| WCR | 22 | 160.46 ± 4.43 | 117.82 ± 2.75bc | 0.171 ± 0.005 |
