Abstract excerpt
Understanding the genetic regulation of complex traits like mastitis in Holstein dairy cows remains a challenge, despite significant advancements in breeding techniques. This study integrates 3'-untranslated region alternative polyadenylation (APA) quantitative trait loci (3'aQTL) mapping with genome-wide association studies (GWASs) to identify key genetic variants and regulatory genes influencing traits during...
