投稿须知/期刊简介:
Biology (ISSN 2079-7737) is an international, peer-reviewed, quick-refereeing open access journal of Biological Science published by MDPI online. It publishes reviews, research papers and communications in all areas of biology and at the interface of related disciplines. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material. Subject Areas This journal covers all topics related to Biology. More detail about the journal and its scope is available in the first editorial (https://www.mdpi.com/2079-7737/1/1/1/). Research fields of interest include but are not limited to: • bacteriology<br />• biochemistry<br />• biodiversity<br />• bioethics<br />• bioinformatics<br />• biomathematics<br />• biophysics<br />• biostatistics<br />• botany<br />• cell biology<br />• conservation<br />• developmental biology<br />• education in biology and related disciplines <br />• entomology<br />• evolutionary biology<br />• genetics<br />• genomics<br />• immunology <br />• marine biology<br />• mathematical biology • medicine<br />• microbiology<br />• molecular biology<br />• neurobiology<br />• neuroscience<br />• ornithology<br />• paleobiology<br />• paleontology<br />• parasitology<br />• pharmacology<br />• physiology<br />• plant biology<br />• proteomics<br />• radiation biology<br />• reproductive biology<br />• structural biology<br />• systems biology<br />• virology<br />• zoology

Genetic Diversity and Selective Signature in Dabieshan Cattle Revealed by Whole-Genome Resequencing.
Dabieshan cattle are a typical breed of southern Chinese cattle that have the characteristics of muscularity, excellent meat quality and tolerance to temperature and humidity. Based on 148 whole-genome data, our analysis disclosed the ancestry components of Dabieshan cattle with Chinese indicine (0.857) and East Asian taurine (0.139). The Dabieshan genome demonstrated a higher genomic diversity compared with the other eight populations, supported by the observed nucleotide diversity, linkage disequilibrium decay and runs of homozygosity. The candidate genes were detected by a selective sweep, which might relate to the fertility (, ), feed efficiency (), immune response (, , ), heat resistance (, , ), fat deposition () and the coat color (). We also identified the "East Asian taurine-like" segments in Dabieshan cattle, which might contribute to meat quality traits. The results revealed by the unique and valuable genomic data can build a foundation for the genetic improvement and conservation of genetic resources for indigenous cattle breeds.
