Lashmar, Simon Frederick; Berry, Donagh P.; Pierneef, Rian Ewald; Muchadeyi, Farai C.; Visser, Carina (Oxford University Press, 2021-07)A major obstacle in applying genomic selection (GS) to uniquely adapted local breeds in less-developed countries has been the cost of genotyping at high densities of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). Cost reduction ...

Visser, Carina; Lashmar, Simon Frederick; Van Marle-Koster, Este; Poli, Mario A.; Allain, Daniel (Public Library of Science, 2016-05-12)The Angora goat populations in Argentina (AR), France (FR) and South Africa (SA) have been kept geographically and genetically distinct. Due to country-specific selection and breeding strategies, there is a need to ...

Lashmar, Simon Frederick; Visser, Carina; Van Marle-Koster, Este (Elsevier, 2016-03)Goats (Capra aegagrus hircus) have not been a prioritized livestock species with regards to molecular research. The genetic characterization of commercial South African (SA) goat breeds should contribute to improving the ...

Lashmar, Simon Frederick; Visser, Carina; Van Marle-Koster, Este (South African Society for Animal Science, 2015-03-12)Tools for the genomic evaluation of goats have generally lagged behind those for other species. However, the recent availability of the goat SNP50 consortium bead chip has marked a positive change for this small ruminant ...
