Population structure and identification of genomic regions associated with productive traits in five Italian beef cattle breeds
Abstract Italy has a long history in beef production, with local breeds such as Marchigiana, Chianina, Romagnola, Maremmana, and Podolica which produce high-quality meat. Selection has improved meat production, precocity, growth ability and muscle development, but the genetic determinism of such tra...
