Searching for homozygous haplotype deficiency in Manech Tête Rousse dairy sheep revealed a nonsense variant in the MMUT gene affecting newborn lamb viability
Abstract Background Recessive deleterious variants are known to segregate in livestock populations, as in humans, and some may be lethal in the homozygous state. Results We used phased 50 k single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes and pedigree data to scan the genome of 6845 Manech Tête Rousse...
