Genome-wide association study for birth weight in Nellore cattle points to previously described orthologous genes affecting human and bovine height

BACKGROUND: Birth weight (BW) is an economically important trait in beef cattle, and is associated with growth- and stature-related traits and calving difficulty. One region of the cattle genome, located on Bos primigenius taurus chromosome 14 (BTA14), has been previously shown to be associated with...
