[Dataset]}, abstract = {The aim of this research was to map quantitative trait loci data with withers height in four pony breeds native to the British Isles. Using a genome-wide analysis approach using the Illumina EquineSNP50 Infinium BeadChip, DNA samples from either hair root or cheek swab samples were taken from 120 adult (4+ years old) ponies. The authors concluded that combined inter-breed and intra-breed genome wide association data (GWAS) can be used to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with height and therefore exclude SNPs that appear to be observed due to selection for breed-specific characteristics rather than to the actual trait studied, thereby enhancing our insight into loci associated with height-related traits in general.}, doi = {10.1139/gen-2018-0006}, eissn = {1480-3321}, issn = {0831-2796}, note = {COMPLETED -- Rec'd permission from pub 20/9/2018 LM -- Requested permission again from pub 18/9/2018 LM -- Journal output added to OpenAIR http://hdl.handle.net/10059/3071 16/8/2018 LM -- Have requested permission from pub 10/8/2018 LM -- Info via contact 9/8/2018 LM ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: McEwan, Neil}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {Canadian Science Publishing}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10059/3187}, keyword = {Height, Horse, Single nucleotide polymorphisms, Genome wide association, High density genotyping, Quantitative trait loci}, year = {2018}, }
