Genome variants associated with RNA splicing variations in bovine are extensively shared between tissues

Abstract Background Mammalian phenotypes are shaped by numerous genome variants, many of which may regulate gene transcription or RNA splicing. To identify variants with regulatory functions in cattle, an important economic and model species, we used sequence variants to map a type of expression qua...
