Abstract excerpt
The main goal of this study was to pinpoint functional candidate genes associated with multiple economically important traits in Nellore cattle. After quality control, 1830 genomic regions sourced from 52 scientific peer-reviewed publications were used in this study. From these, a total of 8569 positional candidate genes were annotated for reproduction, 11,195 for carcass, 5239 for growth, and 3483 for...
