Genomic Selection in Dairy Cattle: The USDA Experience.

Annual review of animal biosciences - 8 Feb 2017

Wiggans George R, Cole John B, Hubbard Suzanne M, Sonstegard Tad S

Abstract excerpt

Genomic selection has revolutionized dairy cattle breeding. Since 2000, assays have been developed to genotype large numbers of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at relatively low cost. The first commercial SNP genotyping chip was released with a set of 54,001 SNPs in December 2007. Over 15,000 genotypes were used to determine which SNPs should be used in genomic evaluation of US dairy cattle. Official USDA...
