Integrating Genome-Wide CNVs Into QTLs and High Confidence GWAScore Regions Identified Positional Candidates for Sheep Economic Traits

Copy number variations (CNVs) are important source of genetic variation, which can affect diverse economic traits through a variety of mechanisms. In addition, genome scan can identify many quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for the economic traits, while genome-wide association studies (GWAS) can local...
