No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2017-08-23; Background: Beef cattle breeding programs in Brazil have placed greater emphasis on the genomic study of reproductive traits of males and females due to their economic importance. In this study, genome-wide associations were assessed for scrotal circumference at 210d of age, scrotal circumference at 420...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-05-05; Background: Recent technological advances in genomics have allowed the genotyping of cattle through single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels. High-density SNP panels possess greater genome coverage and are useful for the identification of conserved regions of the genome due to selection, known as sel...
