These selection signatures overlapped with 52 QTL-associated SNPs some of which were directly related to fiber traits (PIK3R4, COL6A6, and COL6A5), milk content (LOXL2, R3HCC1, CHMP7, RHOBTB2, PEBP4, ARHGEF10L, and FAM110B), body weight (SLCA6A2, MT3, and MT4), carcass traits (TSHZ2, CCDC12, PTH1R, MYL3, PRSS42P, MBL2, KATNIP, and GSG1L), some blood parameters (OR6K6, OR6N1, OR6N2, BEND7, PRPF18, FRMD4A, and IFITM10), and an ocular disease known as entropion (OR8K1 and OR5A1). Here, GSG1L is linked to entropion.
