RETRACTED ARTICLE: Dissecting closely linked association signals in combination with the mammalian phenotype database can identify candidate genes in dairy cattle

Abstract Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successfully implemented in cattle research and breeding. However, moving from the associations to identifying the causal variants and revealing underlying mechanisms have proven complicated. In dairy cattle populations, we face a...
