Genome‐wide association analysis identifies the genetic basis of fat deposition in the tails of sheep (Ovis aries)
SS Xu, X Ren, GL Yang, XL Xie, YX Zhao… - Animal …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Fat‐tailed sheep (Ovis aries) can survive in harsh environments and satisfy human's intake
of dietary fat. However, the animals require more feed, which increases the cost of farming.
Thus, most farmers currently prefer thin‐tailed, short‐tailed or docked sheep. To date, the
molecular mechanism of the formation of fat tails in sheep has not been completely
elucidated. Here, we conducted a genome‐wide association study using phenotypes and
genotypes (the Ovine Infinium HD SNP BeadChip genotype data) of two breeds of …
