- Abstract
Simple Summary: This article first introduces the basic principles and analysis process of genome-wide association studies and metabolome genome-wide association studies, then summarizes the latest research progress regarding their applications in animal genetic breeding, and finally briefly compares and elaborates on the advantages and disadvantages of genome-wide association studies and metabolome genome-wide association studies. Given the current emphasis on the analysis of genome-wide association studies and metabolome genome-wide association studies as a focal point of scientific research, our aim in publishing this review is to provide a resource for fellow scientists to efficiently grasp the advancements within our domain. In recent years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and metabolome genome-wide association studies (mGWAS) have emerged as crucial methods for investigating complex traits in animals and plants. These have played pivotal roles in research on livestock and poultry breeding, facilitating a deeper understanding of genetic diversity, the relationship between genes, and genetic bases in livestock and poultry. This article provides a review of the applications of GWAS and mGWAS in animal genetic breeding, aiming to offer reference and inspiration for relevant researchers, promote innovation in animal genetic improvement and breeding methods, and contribute to the sustainable development of animal husbandry.
