Conteúdo: | Genome-wide association studies were conducted to identify the more informative genomic regions and SNPs, as well as to identify candidate genes associated with infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (IBK) resistance/susceptibility in Hereford cattle. A Bayes B statistical approach was initially applied in genome-wide association studies by using deregressed estimated breeding values for IBK resistance/susceptibility. To estimate the combined effect of a genomic region that is potentially associated with QTL, 2504 non-overlapping 1-Mb windows that varied in SNP number were de&#64257;ned, with the most informative 24 windows including 427 SNPs and explaining more than 20% of the estimated genetic variance for IBK resistance/susceptibility. These regions were explored with respect to their biological functions through functional analysis to map potential candidate genes. The signi&#64257;cant SNPs were mapped on chromosomes 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20, 23, and 28, and candidate genes were detected as related to the IBK. Most informative SNPs in term of genetic variance were located in proximity of genes related to phenotypic expression of lesions and biological processes associated to the IBK. Knowledge about phenotypic and genomic variation generated in the present study can be used to on design selection strategies to improve the resistance to IBK of Hereford cattle herds.
