Abstract excerpt
Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) establishes persistent infection in more than 50% of infected ruminants, irrespective of vaccination status, implicating potential contributions of host genetic variations to viral persistence. In this study, we conducted whole-genome resequencing of a cohort of 22 cattle, comprising 7 carriers and 15 noncarriers. Clean reads were mapped to the cattle (Bos taurus) reference...
