This study identifies a QTL on chromosome 4 associated with circadian feeding rhythmicity in pigs, linking it to genes involved in feeding behavior and energy homeostasis.

This study identifies lactation-stage specific QTL for milk urea concentration in dairy cattle breeds, highlighting pleiotropic effects and candidate genes.

This study identifies inbreeding depression on stature in Brown Swiss cattle and discovers a recessive QTL linked to a splice donor variant in ABCC6.

The paper presents a reusable TWAS workflow for cattle to identify gene-trait associations using GWAS and transcriptomic data, improving variant calling and detecting novel associations.

The paper performs genome-wide association studies in cattle to identify QTL for stature and mammary gland morphology, finding pleiotropic effects of the Friesian POLLED haplotype on mammary traits.

The paper identifies 41k regulatory loci in cattle reproductive tissues linked to male fertility by analyzing gene expression and splicing variation across testis, epididymis, and vas deferens.

The paper quantifies evolutionary constraint on the branch point sequence in 30 species using public variant databases, finding biased variants in 16 species and identifying constrained positions in 14.

The paper compares two multi-trait association methods and fine-maps six QTL in pigs, finding similar results between methods but highlighting potential missed QTL in multi-trait analyses.

The paper identifies a 1-bp deletion in QRICH2 as a recessive cause of low sperm count and immotile sperm with morphological abnormalities in Brown Swiss bulls.

This paper benchmarks phasing software using a whole-genome sequenced cattle pedigree, finding ShapeIT4.1 and Beagle5.2 to be the most accurate for long haplotype segments.

The paper quantifies evolutionary constraint on intronic branch point sequences in bovine and human genomes, finding strong purifying selection and links to alternative splicing.

This study compares the impact of two cattle reference genomes on genomic analyses, finding negligible differences in most tasks but significant effects on selection signature detection.

The paper characterizes a haplotype-reference panel for low-pass sequencing genotyping in Swiss Large White pigs, showing high concordance with microarray genotypes and significant genetic differentiation between lines.

The paper identifies four novel recessive QTL for male fertility in dairy cattle and prioritizes a missense variant in SPATA16 as a candidate causal variant.

The paper evaluates imputation accuracy in Nellore cattle using two bovine genome assemblies, showing improved accuracy with larger reference and target panels.

The paper identifies a recessive allele in WDR19 associated with reduced semen quality and male fertility in cattle, showing it activates cryptic splicing and reduces protein expression.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing of 49 Original Braunvieh cattle ancestors to assess genomic diversity, inbreeding, and selection signatures, finding higher diversity and lower inbreeding compared to European breeds.
