Genome-wide association analysis reveals QTL and candidate mutations involved in white spotting in cattle

Abstract Background White spotting of the coat is a characteristic trait of various domestic species including cattle and other mammals. It is a hallmark of Holstein–Friesian cattle, and several previous studies have detected genetic loci with major effects for white spotting in animals with Holstei...
