- Abstract
The article provides information on the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in sheep. SNP has emerged as the most modern genetic markers due to complete-genome projects. There is an overall frequency of the rare allele higher than 5% in 32 SNP. The SNP data collected in sheep is ideal for the genetic analysis of breed history of a variety of phenotypes.
