The GeneSeek Genomic Profiler (GGP) Bovine 100K contains approximately 100,000 markers, known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (or SNPs), and is designed specifically for Bos taurus and Bos taurus influenced cattle.

The GGP Bovine 100K is ideal for the calculation of genomically enhanced breeding values, particularly for seedstock animals, along with use for parentage assignment, management of recessive genetic traits and conditions, genome wide selection, comparative genetic studies, and higher density imputation.

The GGP Bovine 100K can be ordered as either a standalone test, or in association with one of Neogen Australasia’s breed specific genomic test bundles.

The GGP Bovine 100K lassos the knowledge of industry leading scientists, combined with Neogen’s leading SNP selection processes, to precisely choose the most informative 100,000 SNPs for Bos taurus cattle. This delivers more accurate evaluation of genetic merit, genome wide selection, comparative genetic studies, and higher density imputation.

The GGP Bovine 100K contains the most informative content from popular lower density commercial arrays. Additionally, it has validated and retained the most informative SNPs from the original Illumina Bovine SNP50 and Illumina Bovine HD Bead Chips.

Key features of the GGP Bovine 100K include:

• Smart design. SNPs specifically chosen for high minor allele frequency and uniform coverage of the genome for most beef and dairy breeds of cattle.
• Comprehensive information. Includes significant overlap to many other bovine SNP panels for increased imputation accuracy.
• Parentage Verification. Includes all commonly utilised USDA and ISAG parentage markers.

Utilise the best content from the most commonly used commercial genotyping arrays, and for a low affordable price, PLUS comprehensive parentage, disease and trait relevant SNPs.
