The use of imputed WGS data in GWAS analyses enabled the broad identification of regions and candidate genes throughout the genome that regulate expression of feed efficiency-related traits in Nellore cattle. Our results provide new perspectives into the molecular mechanisms underlying feed efficiency in Nellore cattle, offering a genetic basis to guide the breeding of efficient animals, thereby optimizing resource utilization and the profitability of production systems.
