    Harnessing cross-species alignment to discover SNPs and generate a draft genome sequence of a bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis)

    Whole genome sequences (WGS) have proliferated as sequencing technology continues to improve and costs decline. While many WGS of model or domestic organisms have been produced, a growing number of non-model s...

    Non-synonymous mutations mapped to chromosome X associated with andrological and growth traits in beef cattle

    Previous genome-wide association analyses identified QTL regions in the X chromosome for percentage of normal sperm and scrotal circumference in Brahman and Tropical Composite cattle. These traits are importan...

    Whole-genome resequencing of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) and insight into regions of homozygosity

    Hanwoo (Korean cattle), which originated from natural crossbreeding between taurine and zebu cattle, migrated to the Korean peninsula through North China. Hanwoo were raised as draft animals until the 1970s wi...

    Whole genome resequencing of black Angus and Holstein cattle for SNP and CNV discovery

    One of the goals of livestock genomics research is to identify the genetic differences responsible for variation in phenotypic traits, particularly those of economic importance. Characterizing the genetic vari...

    High resolution radiation hybrid maps of bovine chromosomes 19 and 29: comparison with the bovine genome sequence assembly

    High resolution radiation hybrid (RH) maps can facilitate genome sequence assembly by correctly ordering genes and genetic markers along chromosomes. The objective of the present study was to generate high res...

    A high resolution radiation hybrid map of bovine chromosome 14 identifies scaffold rearrangement in the latest bovine assembly

    Radiation hybrid (RH) maps are considered to be a tool of choice for fine map** closely linked loci, considering that the resolution of linkage maps is determined by the number of informative meiosis and rec...

    A second generation radiation hybrid map to aid the assembly of the bovine genome sequence

    Several approaches can be used to determine the order of loci on chromosomes and hence develop maps of the genome. However, all map** approaches are prone to errors either arising from technical deficiencies...
