About 99.9% of the Ethiopian goat populations are indigenous and managed by smallholder farmers. They are phenotypically and genotypically diverse and managed under different agro-ecological zones including the two extreme environments. Therefore, they are known for their hardiness, adapted to different environmental conditions (hot, cold, and drought stresses), and survive and reproduce in low input production systems. The current, genomic data will be used for studying population structure, genetic diversity, dispersal routes and selection signatures of the complex traits of Ethiopian goats. It also helps for decision-making on genetic conservation and improvement programs, and is used as an input for the global goat genome research
