Abstract excerpt
A previous genome-wide search with a moderate-density 10,000-SNP set identified many marker associations with twinning rate on BTA14 through either single-marker analysis or combined linkage-linkage disequilibrium (LLD; haplotype) analysis. The objective of the current study was to fine-map putative QTL using a more densely populated marker map and both a larger and an independent set of phenotypic data. Holstein...
