dc.description.abstract | Background: In the early 20th century, Cuban farmers imported Charolais cattle (CHFR) directly from France. These animals are now known as Chacuba (CHCU) and have become adapted to the rough environmental tropical condi‑ tions in Cuba. These conditions include long periods of drought and food shortage with extreme temperatures that European taurine cattle have difculty coping with. Results: In this study, we used whole-genome sequence data from 12 CHCU individuals together with 60 wholegenome sequences from six additional taurine, indicus and crossed breeds to estimate the genetic diversity, structure and accurate ancestral origin of the CHCU animals. Although CHCU animals are assumed to form a closed population, the results of our admixture analysis indicate a limited introgression of Bos indicus. We used the extended haplotype homozygosity (EHH) approach to identify regions in the genome that may have had an important role in the adapta‑ tion of CHCU to tropical conditions. Putative selection events occurred in genomic regions with a high proportion of Bos indicus, but they were not sufcient to explain adaptation of CHCU to tropical conditions by Bos indicus introgres‑ sion only. EHH suggested signals of potential adaptation in genomic windows that include genes of taurine origin involved in thermogenesis (ATP9A, GABBR1, PGR, PTPN1 and UCP1) and hair development (CCHCR1 and CDSN). Within these genes, we identifed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that may have a functional impact and contribute to some of the observed phenotypic diferences between CHCU and CHFR animals. Conclusions: Whole-genome data confrm that CHCU cattle are closely related to Charolais from France (CHFR) and Canada, but also reveal a limited introgression of Bos indicus genes in CHCU. We observed possible signals of recent adaptation to tropical conditions between CHCU and CHFR founder populations, which were largely independent of the Bos indicus introgression. Finally, we report candidate genes and variants that may have a functional impact and explain some of the phenotypic diferences observed between CHCU and CHFR cattle. | ca |
