Linkage disequilibrium (LD) affects genomic studies accuracy. High-density genotyping platforms identify SNPs across animal genomes, increasing LD evaluation resolution for accurate analysis. This study aimed to evaluate the decay and magnitude of LD in a cohort of 81 crossbred dairy cattle using the GGP_HDv3_C Bead Chip. After quality control, 116,710 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) across 2520.241 Mb of autosomes were retained. LD extent was assessed between autosomal SNPs within a 10 Mb range using the r statistics. LD value declined as inter-marker distance increased. The average r value was 0.24 for SNP pairs < 10 kb apart, decreasing to 0.13 for 50-100 kb distances. Minor allele frequency (MAF) and sample size significantly impact LD. Lower MAF thresholds result in smaller r values, while higher thresholds show increased r values. Additionally, smaller sample sizes exhibit higher average r values, especially for larger physical distance intervals (> 50 kb) between SNP pairs. Effective population size and inbreeding coefficient were 150 and 0.028 for the present generation, indicating a decrease in genetic diversity over time. These findings imply that the utilization of high-density SNP panels and customized/breed-specific SNP panels represent a highly favorable approach for conducting genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and implementing genomic selection (GS) in the Bos indicus cattle breeds, whose genomes are still largely unexplored. Furthermore, it is imperative to devise a meticulous breeding strategy tailored to each herd, aiming to enhance desired traits while simultaneously preserving genetic diversity.
