Prioritizing candidate genes post-GWAS using multiple sources of data for mastitis resistance in dairy cattle

Abstract Background Improving resistance to mastitis, one of the costliest diseases in dairy production, has become an important objective in dairy cattle breeding. However, mastitis resistance is influenced by many genes involved in multiple processes, including the response to infection, inflammat...
