Sequence-based GWAS meta-analyses for beef production traits

CONCLUSIONS: By identifying candidate genes and potential causal variants associated with beef production traits in cattle, MA demonstrates great potential for investigating the biological mechanisms underlying these traits. As a complement to within-population GWAS, this approach can provide deeper insights into the genetic architecture of complex traits in beef cattle.PMID:37828440 | PMC:PMC10568825 | DOI:10.1186/s12711-023-00848-5
