Abstract excerpt
Carcass yield traits are of considerable economic importance for farm animals, which act as a major contributor to the world’s food supply. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified many genetic variants associated with carcass yield traits in beef cattle. However, their functions are not effectively illustrated. In this study, we performed an integrative analysis of gene-based GWAS with expression...
