Abstract
Understanding the genetic profile of cattle allows producers to make predictions of performance and disease. However, it is often fiscally and logistically unfeasible for commercial cattle producers to individually genotype animals. As such, our objective was to utilize prospectively-pooled DNA from commercial feedlot cattle for a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of economically-important carcass traits and measure the economic efficiency of this technique.
