Complex or quantitative traits are important in medicine, agriculture and evolution, yet, until
recently, few of the polymorphisms that cause variation in these traits were known. Genome …

The quality and value of the carcass in domestic meat animals are reflected in its protein and
fat content. Preadipocytes and adipocytes are important in establishing the overall fatness of …

A cattle database of candidate genes and genetic markers for milk production and mastitis

India is one the world's five largest producers of livestock and poultry meat. The livestock
sector contributes 28% of the country's agriculture gross domestic product and about 5% of …

High-throughput sequencing technologies have increased the ability to detect sequence
variations for complex trait improvement. A high throughput genome wide genotyping-by …

Since 1950, links between intake of saturated fatty acids and heart disease have led to
recommendations to limit consumption of saturated fatty acid-rich foods, including beef. Over …

The aim of our study was to estimate effects of polymorphisms in the ATP‐binding cassette
G2 (ABCG2), fatty acid synthase (FASN), oxidized low‐density lipoprotein receptor 1 …
