An insight into the linkage disequilibrium map of the Canchim beef cattle breed.
The development of linkage disequilibrium (LD) maps is very important for understanding the nature of non-linear association between phenotypes and genes, as LD can be defined as the non-random segregation of a pair of alleles at polymorphic sites. Canchim is a composite beef cattle breed which was developed in the 1960's by the crossing of Bos indicus (3/8) x Charolais (5/8) animals. The objective in this study was to analyze the extension of LD maps from a Canchim beef cattle population.
