WP4 objectives
Utilising the map of functionally active elements in the bovine genome (WP2, 5), WP4 will combine WGS, transcriptomic, metabolite and phenotypic data from beef and dairy cattle to pinpoint genetic variants underpinning variation in gene expression, intermediate phenotypes and traits related to biological efficiency, disease resistance and fertility.
