  "summary": "The phenotypic and genetic diversity of horses worldwide today likely resulted from two main events: (i) domestication and, afterwards, (ii) breed creation. While many studies discuss the origin and domestication of horses, very few focus on the second important event, which has largely shaped the genetic architecture of horses at present. This study exhaustively examined all 18 local horse…",
