Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are recognized as gene expression regulators, indirectly orchestrating a plethora of biological processes. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), one of the most common genetic variations in the genome, is established to affect miRNA functioning and influence complex traits and diseases. SNPs in miRNAs have also been associated with important production traits in livestock. Thus, the aim of our...
