摘要: Introduction: To enhance the beef cattle industry, Heilongjiang Province has developed a new Crossbred beef cattle variety through crossbreeding with exotic commercial breeds. This new variety exhibits relatively excellent meat quality, and efficient reproductive performance, catering to market demands. Method: This study employed whole genome resequencing technology to analyze the genetic pedigree and diversity of 19 Heilongjiang Crossbred beef cattle, alongside 59 published genomes from East Asian, Eurasian, and European taurine cattle as controls. In addition, genes related to production traits were also searched by identifying Runs of Homozygosity (ROH) islands and important fragments from ancestors. Results: A total of 14,427,729 biallelic SNPs were discovered, with the majority located in intergenic and intron regions and a small percentage in exon regions, impacting protein function. Population genetic analyses including Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Neighbor-Joining (NJ) tree, and ADMIXTURE identified Angus, Holstein, and Mishima as the main ancestors of Crossbred beef cattle. In genetic diversity analysis, nucleotide diversity, linkage disequilibrium, and inbreeding coefficient analysis reveal that the genetic diversity of Crossbred beef cattle is at a moderate level, and a higher inbreeding coefficient indicates the need for careful breeding management. In addition, some genes related to economic traits are identified through the identification of Runs of Homozygosity (ROH) islands and important fragments from ancestors. Conclusion: This comprehensive genomic characterization supports the targeted improvement of economically important traits in Crossbred beef cattle, facilitating advanced breeding strategies.
