Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A cost-effective strategy to increase the density of available markers within a population is to sequence a small proportion of the population and impute whole-genome sequence data for the remaining population. Increased densities of typed markers are advantageous for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic predictions. METHODS: We obtained genotypes for 54 602 SNPs (single nucleotide...
