Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In model organisms, high quality of gene annotation is available and it is possible to quickly identify candidate genes for the quantitative trait of interest. But its use is restricted in livestock due to poor annotation. Recently, microarray and next-generation sequencing technologies have generated high-throughput gene expression data that are collected in public database for multiple species. This study develops a system for identifying QTL candidate genes in livestock using published microarray data. Here, focusing on mouse and cattle, we investigated the usefulness of current system for predicting phenotypes and estimating a reliable gene network.
