DNA methylation and gene expression profiles of longissimus dorsi muscles between Japanese black and Chinese Red Steppes cattle identified genes that might contribute to differences in meat quality [9]. While a comparison of the methylomes of two Creole cattle breeds living in tropical environments with...
The beef cattle industry represents a diverse and unique sector of animal agriculture with varying breeds, production climates, and marketing objectives. The industry is not vertically integrated and thus breeding and selection decisions are controlled by individual farmers and ranchers. In the United St...
The Banni, Jaffarabadi and Surti breeds, which all originate from nearby areas of Western India, cluster together in the PCA. The relative geographic separation of the Pandharpuri and Bhadawari breeds is mirrored in their genomes, with these breeds being comparatively genetically distinct to the ...
Domestication and selective breeding has resulted in over 1000 extant cattle breeds. Many of these breeds do not excel in important traits but are adapted to local environments. These adaptations are a valuable source of genetic material for efforts to i
selection of breeding animals based on the use of genetic markers (usually single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs that are equally spread across the genome) to estimate breeding values. The relationships among SNP genotypes and animal phenotypes are first estimated in a “reference population” of ei...
breeds). The Aberdeen Angus traits have been kept unaltered at Cabaña El Hinojo in Coronel Suárez, Argentina, all along. Mr. Luis Jaime Bru, one of the owners of Cabaña El Hinojo, has continued to preserve the original, unhybridzed Aberdeen Angus in his herds. His herds in Argentina...
Cattle pastoralism plays a central role in human livelihood in Africa. However, the genetic history of its success remains unknown. Here, through whole-genome sequence analysis of 172 indigenous African cattle from 16 breeds representative of the main cattle groups, we identify a major taurine ×...
Structural variations (SVs) in individual genomes are major determinants of complex traits, including adaptability to environmental variables. The Mongolian and Hainan cattle breeds in East Asia are of taurine and indicine origins that have evolved to ad
