Genome-wide scan highlights the role of candidate genes on phenotypic plasticity for age at first calving in Nellore heifers

Age at first calving (AFC) plays an important role in the economic efficiency of beef cattle production. This trait can be affected by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, leading to physiological changes in response to heifers’ adaptation to a wide range of environments. Genome-wide...
