Multivariate Analysis Identifies Eight Novel Loci Associated with Meat Productivity Traits in Sheep

Multivariate Analysis Identifies Eight Novel Loci Associated with Meat Productivity Traits in Sheep

Despite their economic value, sheep remain relatively poorly studied animals in terms of the number of known loci and genes associated with commercially important traits. This gap in our knowledge can be filled in by performing new genome-wide association studies (GWAS) or by re-analyzing previously...
