Genome-wide association studies of female reproduction in tropically adapted beef cattle
RJ Hawken, YD Zhang, MRS Fortes… - Journal of animal …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
The genetics of reproduction is poorly understood because the heritabilities of traits currently
recorded are low. To elucidate the genetics underlying reproduction in beef cattle, we
performed a genome-wide association study using the bovine SNP50 chip in 2 tropically
adapted beef cattle breeds, Brahman and Tropical Composite. Here we present the results
for 3 female reproduction traits: 1) age at puberty, defined as age in days at first observed
corpus luteum (CL) after frequent ovarian ultrasound scans (AGECL); 2) the postpartum …
