The invention provides methods for identifying a genetic polymorphism associated with increasing weaning weight in progeny of female beef cattle comprising the polymorphism. Genetic marker-assisted selection methods provided by the invention allow avoidance of potentially costly phenotypic testing and inaccuracies associated with traditional breeding schemes and improvement of beef cattle herds.
L'invention concerne des procédés permettant d'identifier un polymorphisme génétique associé à une augmentation du poids des animaux sevrés dans la descendance d'une vache comprenant ledit polymorphisme. L'invention concerne également des procédés de sélection assistés par marqueur génétique permettant d'éviter les essais phénotypiques potentiellement coûteux et les imprécisions associées à des mécanismes d'élevage classiques, et d'améliorer les troupeaux de bovins.
