DNA extraction and llumina Ovine HD Beadchip genotyping

Task 5

This task will comprise DNA extraction and selective genotyping of a subset of 400 lambs by llumina Ovine HD Beadchip. Animals will be selected based on the statistical analysis of relevant phenotypes ( FEC, FAMACHA©, body weight and hematological and biochemical parameters) to represent the extreme levels of resistance (high and low) to internal parasites.

Institutions involved and members of the team in this task:

INIAV

• Ana Júlia Afonso

FMV

• Andreia J. Amaral

Expected results:

• Genotyping of 400 lambs for further GWAS and post-GWAS analysis.
