TL;DR: It is demonstrated that multiple divergent ancient wild goat sources were domesticated in a dispersed process that resulted in genetically and geographically distinct Neolithic goat populations, echoing contemporaneous human divergence across the region.

TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis of 67 ancient Near Eastern cattle remains reveals regional variation that has since been obscured by admixture in modern populations, and mitochondrial DNA stasis supports that this introgression was male-driven, suggesting that selection of arid-adapted zebu bulls enhanced herd survival.

TL;DR: The genomes of worldwide domestic goats, wild caprid species, and historical remains are analyzed, providing evidence of an ancient introgression event from a West Caucasian tur-like species to the ancestor of domestic goats.

TL;DR: This work analysed genome-wide 50 K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data from 144 populations to describe the global patterns of molecular variation, compare them to those observed in other livestock species, and identify the drivers that led to the current distribution of goats.
