International audience In the present study, we used medium density SNP chips and comparisons with worldwide cattle to explore the phylogenetic history of Tunisian and Iberian cattle. We have pointed out an admixed origin of Tunisian populations and low African taurine proportions in the Iberian cattle genome. Our results suggest that iberian and Tunisian cattle derived from different origins and that a past admixture occurred between them
