Abstract Background Domestic goats (Capra hircus) have been selected to play an essential
role in agricultural production systems, since being domesticated from their wild progenitor,
bezoar (Capra aegagrus). A detailed understanding of the genetic consequences imparted
by the domestication process remains a key goal of evolutionary genomics. Results We
constructed the reference genome of bezoar and sequenced representative breeds of
domestic goats to search for genomic changes that likely have accompanied goat …
