Analyzes of genome-wide association follow-up study for calving traits in dairy cattle.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There is often a pronounced disagreement between results obtained from different genome-wide association studies in cattle. There are multiple reasons for this disagreement. Particularly the presence of false positives leads to a need to validate detected QTL before they are optimally incorporated or weighted in selection decisions or further studied for causal gene. In dairy cattle progeny testing...
