Identification of Candidate Variants Associated With Bone Weight Using Whole Genome Sequence in Beef Cattle

Bone weight is critical to affect body conformation and stature in cattle. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide association study for bone weight in Chinese Simmental beef cattle based on the imputed sequence variants. We identified 364 variants associated with bone weight, while 350 of them we...
