- 动物遗传学和动物繁殖
- 乳牛的繁殖 乳牛的繁殖
- 基因组选择 基因组选择
背景情况:
- 开放日 (DO) 是乳牛的重要生殖和经济特征,对遗传选择至关重要.
- 传统的DO遗传改进方法具有挑战性,需要先进的基因组方法.
- 泰国 - 荷尔斯坦杂交牛是研究生殖特征的独特种群,因为它们的品种组成各不相同.
研究的目的:
- 用BLUP (AIREML) 与单步基因组AIREML (ssGAIREML) 进行传统的平均亲生繁殖和关系估计的准确性比较,以估计几天的遗传参数和繁殖值.
- 使用全基因组关联研究 (GWAS) 识别与开放日相关的单核酸多态 (SNP) 区域和候选基因.
- 评估ssGAIREML在泰国乳牛繁殖计划中提高遗传选择准确性的潜力.
主要方法:

RNA is the Missing Link Between DNA and Proteins
In the early 1900s, scientists discovered that DNA stores all the information needed for cellular functions and that proteins perform most of these functions. However, the mechanisms of converting genetic information into functional proteins remained unknown for many years. Initially, it was believed that a single gene is...

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS
12.4K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
