Genome-wide association study for milk production and conformation traits in Canadian Alpine and Saanen dairy goats

ABSTRACT: Increasing the productivity of Canadian dairy goats is critical to the competitiveness of the sector; however, little is known about the underlying genetic architecture of economically important traits in these populations. Consequently, the objectives of this study were as follows: (1) to...
