Meta-Analysis of Heifer Traits Identified Reproductive Pathways in <i>Bos indicus</i> Cattle

Fertility traits measured early in life define the reproductive potential of heifers. Knowledge of genetics and biology can help devise genomic selection methods to improve heifer fertility. In this study, we used ~2400 Brahman cattle to perform GWAS and multi-trait meta-analysis to determine genomi...
