Identification of deleterious recessive haplotypes and candidate deleterious recessive mutations in Japanese Black cattle

Abstract Intensive use of a few elite sires has increased the risk of the manifestation of deleterious recessive traits in cattle. Substantial genotyping data gathered using single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays have identified the haplotypes with homozygous deficiency, which may compromise su...
