Genome-wide association study of body weight and conformation traits in neonatal sheep.

Animal genetics - 1 Mar 2020

Abstract excerpt

Sheep, an important source of meat, dairy products and wool, play an essential part in the global agricultural economy. Body weight and body conformation are key traits in the sheep industry; however, their underlying genetic mechanisms are poorly understood. In this study, a GWAS was implemented to identify promising genes possibly linked to birth weight (BW) and body conformation traits in neonatal sheep, using...
