Genome-wide association study for feed efficiency traits using SNP and haplotype models.
Feed costs comprise the majority of variable expenses in beef cattle systems making feed efficiency an important economic consideration within the beef industry. Due to the expense of recording individual feed intake phenotypes, a genomic-enabled approach could be advantageous towards improving this economically relevant trait complex. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using ...
متن کاملA Genome-Wide Association Study for Agronomic Traits in Soybean Using SNP Markers and SNP-Based Haplotype Analysis
Mapping quantitative trait loci through the use of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in populations of unrelated individuals provides a valuable approach for dissecting the genetic basis of complex traits in soybean (Glycine max). The haplotype-based genome-wide association study (GWAS) has now been proposed as a complementary approach to intensify benefits from LD, which enable to assess the genetic...
متن کاملGenome wide association study for feed efficiency traits in beef cattle using CNV
The purpose of this study was: (i) to validate and detect copy number variations (CNV) in the cattle genome, and (ii) to find associations between CNV and feed efficiency traits. Average daily gain and dry matter intake were obtained from 3,884 beef cattle. Animals were genotyped with the panels of 50,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) or 770,000 SNP. The log R ratio (LRR) was used as an...
متن کاملGenome-wide association analysis for feed efficiency in Angus cattle
Estimated breeding values for average daily feed intake (AFI; kg/day), residual feed intake (RFI; kg/day) and average daily gain (ADG; kg/day) were generated using a mixed linear model incorporating genomic relationships for 698 Angus steers genotyped with the Illumina BovineSNP50 assay. Association analyses of estimated breeding values (EBVs) were performed for 41,028 single nucleotide polymor...
متن کاملGenome-wide Association Study to Identify Genes and Biological Pathways Associated with Type Traits in Cattle using Pathway Analysis
Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Type traits describing the skeletal characteristics of an animal are moderately to strongly genetically correlate with other economically important traits in cattle including fertility, longevity and carcass traits. The present study aimed to conduct a genome wide association studies (GWAS) based on gene-set enrichment analysis for identifying the ...
