Water Buffalo Genome Science Comes of Age
(Ivyspring Int Publ, 2010-01-01)
The water buffalo is vital to the lives of small farmers and to the economy of many countries worldwide. Not only are they draught animals, but they are also a source of meat, horns, skin and particularly the rich and ...

The water buffalo is vital to the lives of small farmers and to the economy of many countries worldwide. Not only are they draught animals, but they are also a source of meat, horns, skin and particularly the rich and ...
Genome-wide scan reveals genomic regions and candidate genes underlying direct and maternal effects of preweaning calf mortality in Nellore cattle
(2021-05-01)
We conducted analysis to estimate genetic parameters and to identify genomic regions and candidate genes affecting direct and maternal effects of preweaning calf mortality (PWM) in Nellore cattle. Phenotypic records of ...
Development and evaluation of a low-density single-nucleotide polymorphism chip specific to Bos indicus cattle
(2020-01-01)
Context: Genomic selection has been of increasing interest in the genetic improvement of Zebu cattle, particularly for quantitative traits that are difficult or expensive to measure, such as carcass traits and meat tenderness. ...
The Buffalo Genome and the Application of Genomics in Animal Management and Improvement
(Int Buffalo Information Ctr, 2013-01-01)
The publication of the human genome sequence in 2001 was a major step forward in knowledge necessary to understand the variations between individuals. For farmed species, genomic sequence information will facilitate the ...
Genetic Architecture of Carcass and Meat Quality Traits in Montana Tropical (R) Composite Beef Cattle
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2020-02-27)
The Montana Tropical(R) Composite is a recently developed beef cattle population that is rapidly expanding in Brazil and other tropical countries. This is mainly due to its improved meat quality and adaptation to tropical ...
Genome-wide association study for feedlot average daily gain in Nellore cattle (Bos indicus)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-06-01)
The genome-wide association study (GWAS) results are presented for average daily gain (ADG) in Nellore cattle. Phenotype of 720 male Bos indicus animals with information of ADG in feedlots and 354147 single-nucleotide ...
Genomic prediction ability for carcass composition indicator traits in Nellore cattle
(2021-03-01)
The aim of this study was to compare the genomic prediction ability for carcass composition indicator traits in Nellore cattle using the Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP), Genomic BLUP (GBLUP), single-step GBLUP ...
Genomic prediction of bull fertility in US Jersey dairy cattle
(Elsevier, 2019-04)
Service sire has a major effect on reproductive success in dairy cattle. Recent studies have reported accurate predictions for Holstein bull fertility using genomic data. The objective of this study was to assess the ...
An assessment of genomic connectedness measures in Nellore cattle
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, 2020-11-01)
An important criterion to consider in genetic evaluations is the extent of genetic connectedness across management units (MU), especially if they differ in their genetic mean. Reliable comparisons of genetic values across ...
