Title: | Massive screening of copy number population-scale variation in Bos taurus genome | Authors: | Cicconardi, Francesco Chillemi, Giovanni Tramontano, Anna Marchitelli, Cinzia Valentini, Alessio Ajmone-Marsan, Paolo Nardone, Alessandro |
Journal: | BMC GENOMICS | Issue Date: | 2013 | Abstract: | Copy number variations (CNVs) represent a significant source of genomic structural variation. Their length ranges from approximately one hundred to millions of base pair. Genome-wide screenings have clarified that CNVs are a ubiquitous phenomenon affecting essentially the whole genome. Although Bos taurus is one of the most important domestic animal species worldwide and one of the most studied ruminant models for metabolism, reproduction, and disease, relatively few studies have investigated CNVs in cattle and little is known about how CNVs contribute to normal phenotypic variation and to disease susceptibility in this species, compared to humans and other model organisms. |
