Development of tetra-primer ARMS-PCR protocol to genotype the prolactin receptor SNP 39136666 and assessment of this SNP in Brazilian locally adapted cattle breeds. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2021
Genome-wide scan of gastrointestinal nematode resistance in closed Angus population selected for minimized influence of MHC. Genetic markers associated with parasite indicator traits are ideal targets for study of marker assisted selection aimed at controlling infections that reduce herd use of anthelminthics. For this stud... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
Identification of novel loci associated with gastrointestinal parasite resistance in a Red Maasai x Dorper backcross population. Gastrointestinal (GI) parasitic infection is the main health constraint for small ruminant production, causing loss of weight and/or death. Red Maasai sheep have adapted to a tropical environment wher... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
Accuracy of genomic predictions in Bos indicus (Nellore) cattle. Background- Nellore cattle play an important role in beef production in tropical systems and there is great interest in determining if genomic selection can contribute to accelerate genetic improvemen... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
Assessing signatures of selection through variation in linkage disequilibrium between taurine and indicine cattle. Signatures of selection are regions in the genome that have been preferentially increased in frequency and fixed in a population because of their functional importance in specific processes. These reg... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
Genome-wide mapping of loci explaining variance in scrotal circumference in Nellore Cattle. The reproductive performance of bulls has a high impact on the beef cattle industry. Scrotal circumference (SC) is the most recorded reproductive trait in beef herds, and is used as a major selection... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
Worldwide patterns of ancestry, divergence, and admixture in domesticated cattle. The domestication and development of cattle has considerably impacted human societies, but the histories of cattle breeds and populations have been poorly understood especially for African, Asian, and... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
Identification of genomic regions associated with feed efficiency in Nelore cattle. Feed efficiency is jointly determined by productivity and feed requirements, both of which are economically relevant traits in beef cattle production systems. The objective of this study was to identi... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
A genome-wide scan for selection signatures in Nellore cattle. Brazilian Nellore cattle (Bos indicus) have been selected for growth traits for over more than four decades. In recent years, reproductive and meat quality traits have become more important because of... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
Effects of quantitative trait loci on iron content of bovine longissimus dorsi muscle. Beef cattle require dietary minerals to maintain their health, production and reproduction. Concentration of iron in bovine tissues is at least partially genetically determined. We genotyped 373 Nelor... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2014
