A system-based analysis of the genetic determinism of udder conformation and health phenotypes across three French dairy cattle breeds.
Using GWAS to identify candidate genes associated with cattle morphology traits at a functional level is challenging. The main difficulty of identifying candidate genes and gene interactions associated with such complex traits is the long-range linkage disequilibrium (LD) phenomenon reported widely...
