Genomic selection for tick resistance in Braford and Hereford cattle using single-step methodology.
The Rhipicephalus microplus tick is one of the main sources of losses in tropical cattle production, causing decreased performance, hide devaluation, and increased costs with treatments and transmission of infectious agents. The aim of this work was to evaluate the utility of genomic evaluation of Braford and Hereford cattle for genetic resistance to ticks.
