• Genetics and animal domestication: new windows on an elusive process (2006, background): “Recent reviews have focused on genetic research in the major domestic mammals (Bruford, Bradley & Luikart, 2003) as well as broader aspects of genetics and adaptation (Mignon-Grasteau et al., 2005).”
• Livestock depredation by wolves and the ranching economy in the Northwestern U.S. (2009, background): “, faster weight gain, more wool) are favored, which diverts resources from other traits (Mignon-Grasteau et al., 2005).”
• Resilience in farm animals: biology, management, breeding and implications for animal welfare (2016, background): “2013), with increases in the thresholds for expression of fearfulness and fear of humans being particularly important (Mignon-Grasteau et al. 2005).”
• Diet preference for grass and legumes in free-ranging domestic sheep and cattle: Current theory and future application (2006, background): “…most domesticated sheep and cattle are usually protected from predators, and their domestication has lead to a reduction in anti-predator responses (Mignon-Grasteau et al., 2005), they still exhibit some predator-avoidance strategies that are similar to wild animals (Dwyer, 2004; Boissy et al.,…”
• Genetics of adaptation in domestic farm animals: a review (2010, methodology): “Consequences of domestication could be investigated using methods such as comparison of wild and domestic stocks, longitudinal analysis of wild animals kept in captivity, and molecular genetics techniques (Mignon-Grasteau et al., 2005).”
