Abstract excerpt
Mastitis, the most frequent disease in dairy cattle. Resistance to mastitis is a complex, polygenic trait controlled by several genes, each with small effects. Genome-wide association studies have been widely used to identify genomic variants associated with complex traits, including resistance to mastitis, to elucidate the underlying genetic architecture of the trait. However, no systematic review and gene...
