Abstract excerpt
Wagyu is recognized for producing marbled beef with high nutritional value and flavor. Reportedly, Wagyu has been widely used to improve the meat quality of local breeds around the world. However, studies on the genetic mechanism of meat quality in Wagyu at the whole-genome level are rarely reported. Here, whole-genome sequencing data of 11 Wagyu and 115 other individuals were used to explore the genomic...
