Polymorphism detection of PRKG2 gene and its association with the number of thoracolumbar vertebrae and carcass traits in Dezhou donkey by Tianqi Wang, Ziwen Liu, Xinrui Wang, Yuhua Li, FAHEEM AKHTAR, Mengmeng Li, Zhenwei Zhang, Yandong Zhan, Xiaoyuan Shi, Wei Ren, Bingjian Huang, Changfa Wang, Wenqiong Chai

“…Results In this study, fifteen SNPs were identified by targeted sequencing, all of which were located in introns of the PRKG2 gene. Association analysis illustrated that the g.162153251 G > A, g.162156524 C > T, g.162158453 C > T and, g.162163775 T > G were significantly different from carcass weight. g.162166224 G > A, g.162166654 T > A, g.162167165 C > A, g.162167314 A > C and, g.162172653 G > C were significantly associated with the number of thoracic vertebrae. g.162140112 A > G was significantly associated with the number and the length of lumbar vertebrae, and g.162163775 T > G was significantly associated with the total number of thoracolumbar vertebrae. …”

eQTL Catalogue 2023: New datasets, X chromosome QTLs, and improved detection and visualisation of transcript-level QTLs. by Nurlan Kerimov, Ralf Tambets, James D Hayhurst, Ida Rahu, Peep Kolberg, Uku Raudvere, Ivan Kuzmin, Anshika Chowdhary, Andreas Vija, Hans J Teras, Masahiro Kanai, Jacob Ulirsch, Mina Ryten, John Hardy, Sebastian Guelfi, Daniah Trabzuni, Sarah Kim-Hellmuth, William Rayner, Hilary Finucane, Hedi Peterson, Abayomi Mosaku, Helen Parkinson, Kaur Alasoo

“…Finally, to improve the interpretability of transcript-level QTLs, we have developed static QTL coverage plots that visualise the association between the genotype and average RNA sequencing read coverage in the region for all 1.7 million fine mapped associations. To illustrate the utility of these updates to the eQTL Catalogue, we performed colocalisation analysis between vitamin D levels in the UK Biobank and all molecular QTLs in the eQTL Catalogue. …”
