Gebrehiwot, N.Z.Strucken, E.M.Aliloo, H.Marshall, KarenGibson, John P.[Genetic structure and differentiation among African Bos Taurus cattle breeds]Genetic structure and differentiation among African Bos Taurus cattle breeds

Cost-effective high-density (HD) genotypes of livestock species can be obtained by genotyping a proportion of the population using a HD panel and the remainder using a cheaper low-density panel, and then imputing the missing genotypes that are not directly assayed in the low-density panel. The ef...


Aliloo, H.Mrode, Raphael A.Okeyo Mwai, AllyNi, G.Goddard, M.E.Gibson, John P.[The feasibility of using low-density marker panels for genotype imputation and genomic prediction of crossbred dairy cattle of East Africa]The feasibility of using low-density marker panels for genotype imputation and genomic prediction of crossbred dairy cattle of East Africa

Background:Smallholder dairy farming in much of the developing world is based on the use of crossbred cows that combine local adaptation traits of indigenous breeds with high milk yield potential of exotic dairy breeds. Pedigree recording is rare in such systems which means that it is impossible ...


Strucken, E.M.Al-Mamun, H.A.Esquivelzeta-Rabell, C.Gondro, C.Okeyo Mwai, AllyGibson, John P.[Genetic tests for estimating dairy breed proportion and parentage assignment in East African crossbred cattle]Genetic tests for estimating dairy breed proportion and parentage assignment in East African crossbred cattle

To evaluate the Weitzman approach for assessing alternative conservation strategies for breed ( population ) diversity, we used genetic distance measures between 49 African cattle breeds divided into two groups of 26 taurine ( Bos taurus ) and sanga ( Bos taurus×Bos indicus ) breeds and 23 zebu ...

Trypanosomosis, or sleeping sickness, is a major disease constraint on livestock productivity in sub-Saharan Africa. To identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling resistance to trypanosomosis in cattle, an experimental cross was made between trypanotolerant African N'Dama (Bos taurus) and...


Hanotte, Olivier H.Ronin, Y.Agaba, MorrisNilsson, P.Gelhaus, A.Horstmann, R.Sugimoto, Y.Kemp, Stephen J.Gibson, John P.Korol, A.Soller, M.Teale, A.J.[Mapping of quantitative trait loci controlling trypanotolerance in a cross of tolerant West African N'Dama and susceptible East African Boran cattle]Mapping of quantitative trait loci controlling trypanotolerance in a cross of tolerant West African N'Dama and susceptible East African Boran cattle

Microsatellite markers are commonly used for population genetic analyses of livestock. However, up to now, combinations of microsatellite data sets or Microsatellite markers are commonly used for population genetic analyses of livestock. However, up to now, combinations of microsatellite data set...


Freeman, A.R.Bradley, D.G.Nagda, S.M.Gibson, John P.Hanotte, Olivier H.[Combination of multiple microsatellite data sets to investigate genetic diversity and admixture of domestic cattle]Combination of multiple microsatellite data sets to investigate genetic diversity and admixture of domestic cattle

Over the past few years, research at ILRI and by its partners has identified genomic regions controlling trypanotolerance in cattle and in mice. In mice many of the genes lying within these genomic regions have been identified, leading the way to identification of the genes controlling trypanotol...

Bayesian segregation analysis using a Gibbs sampling approach was applied to four sets of simulated data and one set of field data to detect evidence of major genes affecting the evaluated trait. The substitution effect of a major gene and its allelic frequency were estimated for each set of data...
