Abstract excerpt
The present study aimed to ascertain how different strategies for leveraging genomic information enhance the accuracy of estimated breeding values for milk and cheese-making traits and to evaluate the implementation of a low-density (LowD) SNP chip designed explicitly for that aim. Thus, milk samples from a total of 2,020 dairy ewes from 2 breeds (1,039 Spanish Assaf and 981 Churra) were collected and analyzed to...
