Effect of genomic regions harboring putative lethal haplotypes on reproductive performance in closed experimental selection lines of Nellore cattle

Effect of genomic regions harboring putative lethal haplotypes on reproductive performance in closed experimental selection lines of Nellore cattle

Abstract Lethal alleles are mutations in the genome that cause embryonic losses in affected homozygous embryos and, therefore, can negatively influence reproduction rates in commercial populations. Thus, this study aimed to identify genomic regions containing potential lethal haplotypes in Nellore b...
