Genomic Analysis of Purebred and Crossbred Angus Cows Quantifies Heterozygosity, Breed, and Additive Effects on Components of Reproduction

SIMPLE SUMMARY: This study reports a genomic analysis of purebred Angus and Hereford × Angus maternal productivity, which is a key driver of sustainable systems. Heterozygosity effects quantify hybrid vigour or heterosis and were significant for growth and puberty. Breed differences were mostly due...
