Genome Sequence and Assembly of Bos indicus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2012
Cattle are divided into 2 groups referred to as taurine and indicine, both of which have been under strong artificial selection due to their importance for human nutrition. A side effect of this domestication includes a loss of genetic diversity within each specialized breed.

Is the American Zebu really Bos indicus? [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 1999
The American continent was colonized in the 16th century by Europeans who first introduced cattle of Bos taurus origin. Accounts register introduction of Bos indicus cattle into South America in the 19th and continuing through the 20th century, and most reported imports were males derived from the Indian subcontinent.

Meta-Analysis of Heifer Traits Identified Reproductive Pathways in Bos indicus Cattle

open access: yesGenes, 2021
Fertility traits measured early in life define the reproductive potential of heifers. Knowledge of genetics and biology can help devise genomic selection methods to improve heifer fertility. In this study, we used ~2400 Brahman cattle to perform GWAS and

Comparison between in vitro embryo production in Bos indicus and Bos taurus cows

open access: yesResearch, Society and Development, 2021
The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro embryo production in Bos taurus and Bos indicus donors, evaluating from oocyte recovery to final embryo production.

Whole-Genome comparative analysis reveals genetic mechanisms of disease resistance and heat tolerance of tropical Bos indicus cattle breeds.

open access: yesGenome, 2021
The Bos indicus cattle breeds have been naturally selected over thousands of years for disease resistance and thermo-tolerance. However, a genetic mechanism of these specific inherited characteristics needs to be discovered.

The patterns of admixture, divergence, and ancestry of African cattle populations determined from genome-wide SNP data

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Humpless Bos taurus cattle are one of the earliest domestic cattle in Africa, followed by the arrival of humped Bos indicus cattle. The diverse indigenous cattle breeds of Africa are derived from these migrations, with most appearing to be ...

Allele-specific expression is widespread in Bos indicus muscle and affects meat quality candidate genes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Differences between the expression of the two alleles of a gene are known as allele-specific expression (ASE), a common event in the transcriptome of mammals.

Genome analyses revealed genetic admixture and selection signatures in Bos indicus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The genomic diversity and relationship among seven diverse cattle breeds viz. Sahiwal, Tharparkar, Gir, Vechur, Ongole, Kangayam and Hariana were investigated in 132 random samples based on high density SNP array comprising > 777 K SNPs.

Genome-Wide Runs of Homozygosity Revealed Selection Signatures in Bos indicus

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Genome-wide runs of homozygosity (ROH) are suitable for understanding population history, calculating genomic inbreeding, deciphering genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases as well as identifying genes linked with agro-economic traits ...

Population differentiated copy number variation of Bos taurus, Bos indicus and their African hybrids

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2021
Background CNV comprises a large proportion in cattle genome and is associated with various traits. However, there were few population-scale comparison studies on cattle CNV.
