Abstract

{The success of genomic selection from a multi-breed reference population is related with the persistency of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between populations. In this study, we analysed the genetic architecture of the persistency of LD between the Spanish autochthonous beef cattle populations. The biological material consisted of 171 triplets (sire/dam/offspring) for seven populations (Asturiana de los Valles – AV-
