As diet can influence DNA methylation profiles in sperm, the objective of this study was to ascertain if early life calf nutrition could influence DNA methylation patterns in sperm produced post-puber
Gene regulatory elements are central drivers of phenotypic variation and thus of critical importance towards understanding the genetics of complex traits. Here we present a genome-wide annotation of r
In cattle, two of the most common technologies for embryo production are “in vivo”, after multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET), or “in vitro” (IVP). IVP can sometimes impact fetal growth, res
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism involved in expression of genes in many biological processes including muscle growth and development. Its effects on economically important traits
