Figure 3From: An assessment of population structure in eight breeds of cattle using a whole genome SNP panel(A-C). Estimation of the number of ancestral populations based on samples of 25, 50, 100 or 150 loci randomly sampled from the complete dataset. In each panel, the solid bars represent the number of times each K was found to be optimal and the colored lines represent the ΔK values for each of the 10 replicate runs. (A) All eight breeds included, (B) All Bos taurus breeds and (C) Bos taurus without Japanese Black.Back to article page
