- Missing Citation
In the original publication [], the following reference [40] was not included in some sections. The citation has now been inserted in “Introduction, paragraph 3” and “Materials and Methods, 2.3. Genetic Structure of the Population”. References in the original article have been rearranged.

- Text Correction
To more thoroughly describe the existing literature on cattle genetics, we adjusted the following sentences. The details are provided below.
- 1. Introduction
A correction has been made to paragraph 3:
The corrected text appears below:
“Several metrics are employed to assess genetic dissimilarity, with the Fst fixation index being a notable example [16]. Fst is used in studies to reveal genetic variations between populations and identify selection traces within a population [17]. Another approach involves haplotype-based methods in selective sweep models to identify genomic regions where mutations progress rapidly toward fixation, reducing diversity around the locus. In this context, integrated haplotype scoring (iHS) is a widely used method that is particularly effective in livestock studies [18–20]. The use of the Fst or iHS methodology depends on the temporal aspect of the selection events, with Fst being suitable for detecting past traces and iHS more suitable for identifying recent upbeat selections”.
- 2. Materials and Methods, 2.3. Genetic Structure of the Population
We added the sentence “a similar approach utilized in our previous study with the Gir cattle breed [17]” after “principal component analysis (PCA) and discriminant analysis of principal component (DAPC) were performed using the adegenet v.2.1.7 package for R software [26]”.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
