Candidate genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with variation in residual feed intake in beef cattle

The candidate gene approach was used to identify genes associated with residual feed intake (RFI) in beef steers. The approach uses prior knowledge of gene functions to predict their biological role in the variation observed in a trait. It is suited to identify genes associated with complex traits w...
