Abstract Zaosheng cattle have a long history, closely related to Qinchuan cattle. This breed is still under developing phase from drought type beef breed. Followed by years of improvement, shown certain germline characteristics and genetic potential. Here, we used whole genome sequencing data 19 91 published genomes understand its diversity, population structure, environmentally adapted performance. We provide comprehensive overview the sequence variation in explore changes due environmental adaptation. The findings this study demonstrate that composition was primarily derived Chinese East Asian indicine cattle, where, were found be genetically closest. Through ancestral fragment inference selective sweep, identified several genes linked lipid metabolism, immune regulation, fertility meat quality across mosaic showing an excess taurine or ancestry. In summary, supplies essential insights into diversity within provides foundational framework for comprehending basis indigenous breeds.
