Genome-wide association and genotype by environment interactions for growth traits in U.S. Gelbvieh cattle

Genome-wide association and genotype by environment interactions for growth traits in U.S. Gelbvieh cattle

Abstract Background Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays have facilitated discovery of genetic markers associated with complex traits in domestic cattle; thereby enabling modern breeding and selection programs. Genome-wide association analyses (GWAA) for growth traits were conducted on 10,837...
