This suggests that the strategy of combining CSS and multibreed panels showed utility in the African cohorts also, although the overall proportion of candidate gene regions detected was lower compared to European cohorts. High levels of Bos indicus admixture, smaller sample size, and ascertainment bias of the Illumina BovineSNP50 chip in the African Bos taurus breeds may have impacted the power to detect regions under selection (Randhawa et al. 2014; Decker et al. 2009; Gautier et al. 2010; Gautier and Naves 2011)."}
