Abstract excerpt
Indicine cattle (Bos indicus) show notable resilience and disease resistance compared with taurine breeds, but the genomic basis of these traits remains largely unexplored. Identification of genomic elements for immunity will enable future controlled crossbreeding programs using molecular breeding methods. Therefore, we performed a genome-wide comparison among Nelore, Gir, and Hereford breeds using their...
