Résumé

The aim of this study was to identify genomic regions influencing the serum levels of Immunoglobulin A (IgA), an indicator trait of resistance to gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infections in Spanish Churra dairy sheep. With this aim, we performed a Genome-wide Association Study (GWAS) based on imputed genotypes for the Ovine High Density (HD)-chip for a population of 1,686 animals belonging to 16 different half-sib families. The whole population, including the 16 sires and their daughters had available genotypes for the Ovine 50K-chip. The imputation process was based on the 240 animals of the resource population that had been genotyped for the HD-chip. We estimated the accuracy of imputation, using only the genotypes available for the reference population based on a masking strategy designed to avoid any bias in the accuracy estimation. The GWAS identified a significant SNP at the 5% chromosome-wise level, located on OAR15. As complementary approaches, future analyses will exploit the linkage analysis and combined linkage disequilibrium with linkage analysis to exploit the half-sib structure of the studied resource population.
