Article Synopsis
- Weaning weight is crucial for assessing early growth in cattle, and understanding its genetic basis can improve breeding selection accuracy.
- This study analyzed RNA-Sequencing data from 86 Simmental-Holstein crossbred calves to identify genes linked to weaning weight and various body size traits, uncovering 498 differentially expressed genes.
- A final set of 37 candidate genes associated with growth, development, and immune processes were identified, highlighting their potential role in improving cattle breeding practices.
