Genome-wide fine-mapping identifies pleiotropic and functional variants that predict many traits across global cattle populations
Genomic prediction of phenotype may be improved by using DNA mutations with functional, evolutionary, and pleiotropic consequences. Here the authors describe a method for genome-wide fine-mapping of QTLs and develop a genotyping array for improved prediction of genetic values for cattle traits.
