Genome-wide CNV analysis reveals variants associated with high-altitude adaptation and meat traits in Qaidam cattle

Background: Qaidam cattle are local breeds that habitats in northwest China. It has many excellent characteristics, such as high cold and roughage tolerance, low oxygen adaptability, and tender meat quality. Copy number variation (CNV) can induce phenotypic changes in animals by a variety of effects...
