Quantitative trait loci mapping for canine hip dysplasia and its related traits in UK Labrador Retriever (2014)
Journal Article
Sánchez-Molano, E., Woolliams, J. A., Pong-Wong, R., Clements, D. N., Blott, S., & Wiener, P. (2014). Quantitative trait loci mapping for canine hip dysplasia and its related traits in UK Labrador Retriever. BMC Genomics, 15(1), Article 833. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2164-15-833

Background
Canine hip dysplasia (CHD) is characterised by a malformation of the hip joint, leading to osteoarthritis and lameness. Current breeding schemes against CHD have resulted in measurable but moderate responses. The application of marker-ass...

The utility of low-density genotyping for imputation in the Thoroughbred horse (2014)
Journal Article
Corbin, L., Kranis, A., Blott, S., Swinburne, J., Vaudin, M., Bishop, S., & Woolliams, J. (2014). The utility of low-density genotyping for imputation in the Thoroughbred horse. Genetics Selection Evolution, 46, Article 9. https://doi.org/10.1186/1297-9686-46-9

Background
Despite the dramatic reduction in the cost of high-density genotyping that has occurred over the last decade, it remains one of the limiting factors for obtaining the large datasets required for genomic studies of disease in the horse. In... Read More about The utility of low-density genotyping for imputation in the Thoroughbred horse.
