TL;DR: The combined strategy of using mainly whole genome Next Generation Sequencing and mapping on a contig genome assembly, complemented with Illumina design tools proved to be efficient in producing this GoatSNP50 chip.

TL;DR: Quantitative trait loci affecting milk production and health of dairy cattle were mapped in a very large Holstein granddaughter design, and some chromosomes showed some evidence for 2 linked QTL affecting the same trait.

TL;DR: The new BovineLD chip should facilitate low-cost genomic selection in taurine beef and dairy cattle by including single-nucleotide polymorphisms that had a high minor allele frequency and uniform spacing across the genome.
Whole-genome analysis of introgressive hybridization and characterization of the bovine legacy of Mongolian yaks.
