All candidate genes were associated with seven major domestication traits, including dwarfism (ANKRD28), milk (HECW1, HECW2, and OSBPL2), meat (SPATA5 and GRHL2), fertility (BTBD11 and ARFIP1), adaptation (NCKAP5, ANTXR1, LAMA5, OSBPL2, AOC2, and RYR2), growth (GRHL2, GRID2, SMARCAL1, and EPHB2), and immunity (INPP5D and ADCYAP1R1). This evidence concerns the gene ANKRD28 and Severe short stature.
