Genome-wide association study of copy number variation and early growth traits in inner Mongolian cashmere goats
This study significantly expands the genomic CNV map of IMCGs through large-scale genotyping.The findings demonstrate the utility of CNV-based GWAS analysis in elucidating the genetic mechanisms underlying complex traits, providing valuable insights for molecular marker-assisted breeding and molecular genetic research of economically important traits in cashmere goats.
