Animal QTLdb Legacy Data Archive

Legacy Data The livestock genome analysis research have been evolving rapidly. As a result the utility of the traditional linkage-map-based QTL analysis methods/data used since mid-1990s is diminishing as sequence-based genome maps and SNP-based analysis are taking the stage. A total of 13,309 such data curated into the Animal QTLdb during 1999 and 2021 have been deposited into the Github.
