Genome-Wide Mapping of Loci Explaining Variance in Scrotal Circumference in Nellore Cattle

The reproductive performance of bulls has a high impact on the beef cattle industry. Scrotal circumference (SC) is the most recorded reproductive trait in beef herds, and is used as a major selection criterion to improve precocity and fertility. The characterization of genomic regions affecting SC c...
