Geographical distribution, genetic diversity, and environmental adaptations of dromedary camel breeds in Saudi Arabia.
The dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius) in Saudi Arabia exhibits significantgenetic diversity, driven by adaptation to diverse ecological niches such as deserts,mountains, and coastal areas. This study explores the genetic structure of thesecamel populations, correlating their genetic diversity with geographical regionsrather than ecological classifications. Through whole-genome sequencing of63 camel genomes,
