This project investigates the genetic factors influencing mutation and recombination rates in cattle populations. By analyzing these rates, it aims to understand their impact on adaptability and fertility, leveraging extensive phenotypic data and genomic resources to identify key genetic determinants.
Mutation and recombination are fundamental biological processes that determine adaptability of populations.
The mutation rate reflects the equilibrium between the need to adapt, the burden of mutation load, the “cost of fidelity”, and random drift that determines a lower limit in achievable fidelity.
Recombination fulfills an essential mechanistic role during meiosis, ensuring proper chromosomal segregation.
Recombination affects the rate of creation and loss of favorable haplotypes, imposing 2…
