Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms associated with growth and carcass traits located on QTL Regions previously associated with Bovine Respiratory Disease

The objective of the current study was to evaluate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) for potential growth and carcass trait associations located in two previously described quantitative trait loci (QTL) regions associated with bovine respiratory disease. A population of 323 crossbred steers sired by five purebred sire breeds between 2010-2013 (Angus, Braford, Br.. Read More»

Single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with carcass traits in a population of Brahman and Brahman-influenced steers

    A.M. Royer, C. Shivers, D.G. Riley, M.A. Elzo and M.D. Garcia

Brahman cattle are important in tropical regions due to their ability to tolerate excessive heat and parasites. However, Brahman cattle exhibit lower carcass quality characteristics when compared to Bos taurus breeds. The objective of this study was to evaluate potential associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in six candidate genes for carcass q.. Read More»
