Abstract excerpt
The genome sequence was obtained from 270 sires used in the Germplasm Evaluation (GPE) project. These bulls included 154 purebred AI sires from GPE Cycle VII breeds (Hereford, Angus, Simmental, Limousin, Charolais, Gelbvieh, and Red Angus), 83 F crosses of those breeds, and 33 AI sires from 8 other breeds.
