Genome-wide association study identifies functional genomic variants associated with young stock survival in Nordic Red Dairy Cattle

Identifying quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with calf survival is essential for both reducing economic loss in cattle industry and understanding the genetic basis of the trait. To identify mutations and genes underlying young stock survival (YSS), we performed GWAS using de-regressed estima...
