Putative Causal Variants Are Enriched in Annotated Functional Regions From Six Bovine Tissues

Genetic variants which affect complex traits (causal variants) are thought to be found in functional regions of the genome. Identifying causal variants would be useful for predicting complex trait phenotypes in dairy cows, however, functional regions are poorly annotated in the bovine genome. Functi...
