This study investigated the accuracies of imputation from 50K genotypes to high-density genotypes for animals from the Danish, Swedish, or Finnish Red dairy cattle populations, using either a national, combined Red, or combined Red and Holstein reference population. Combining the Red populations increased the imputation accuracy for all 3 populations compared with using single-nationality references. Including Holstein animals in the reference further increased the imputation accuracy for Danish Red.
本研究调查了使用全国性、综合红牛或综合红牛和荷斯坦参考群体,从丹麦、瑞典或芬兰红牛奶牛群体的 50K 基因型向高密度基因型进行推断的准确性。与使用单一国家参考群体相比,组合红牛群体提高了所有 3 个群体的推断准确性。在参考群体中加入荷斯坦动物进一步提高了丹麦红牛的推断准确性。
