Title:Genome-Wide Association Analysis of Reproductive Traits in Chinese Holstein Cattle
Journal:Genes, 2023, 15(1):12 DOI: 10.3390/genes15010012
Abstract:

This study was to explore potential SNP loci for reproductive traits in Chinese Holstein cattle and identify candidate genes. Genome-wide Association Study based on mixed linear model was performed on 643 Holstein cattle using GeneSeek Bovine 50 K SNP chip. Our results detected forty significant SNP loci after Bonferroni correction. We identified five genes (VWC2L, STAT1, PPP3CA, LDB3, and CTNNA3) as being associated with pregnancy ratio of young cows, five genes (PAEP, ACOXL, EPAS1, GLRB, and MARVELD1) as being associated with pregnancy ratio of adult cows, and nine genes (PDE1B, SLCO1A2, ARHGAP26, ADAM10, APBB1, MON1B, COQ9, CDC42BPB, MARVELD1, and HPSE2) as being associated with daughter pregnancy rate. Our study may provide valuable insights into identifying genes related to reproductive traits and help promote the application of molecular breeding in dairy cows.
