The prevalence of large structural variations in the cattle genome as well as their sequence content and biological relevance remain largely unknown. In order to make this type of genetic variation amenable to genetic investigations, COWADAPT will construct a multi-assembly graph that integrates reference-quality assemblies from underrepresented breeds of indicine and taurine cattle. Usin…
Recent Brazilian projects have shown promising results regarding the incorporation of molecular data as a fundamental part of the genetic evaluation processes, and several of these initiatives have already accumulated SNPs in abundance, originated mostly from commercial genotyping platforms. Current research shows that the vast majority of these commercial panels do not include causal mut…
Mating strategies can be included in animal breeding programs in order to reduce inbreeding without compromising the genetic gain of the population. An important method applied to the characterization of autozygosity makes use of the concept runs of homozygosity (ROH), which corresponds to identical copies of haplotypes inherited from the same individual. This method allows the quantifica…
Mating strategies are considered essential tools on herds under animal breeding programs,playing an important role to achieve genetic progress. The advent of Genomic Selection on the last decade, in addition to the improvements on reproduction techniques, shortened the generation interval, enhanced prediction reliabilities and selection intensity, respectively, which provided an expressiv…
Predicting the breed composition of animals derived from a multi breed beef cattle population can help to better understand how the current population have developed, as well as to identify the most suitable prediction method to obtain breeding values for the suggested set of animals. Determining breed composition of animals that are thought to be purebred may give us immediate response f…
