Genomic location of β-defensin genetic variants detected in bulls used in artificial insemination. Pie chart of percent of total SNPs identified in 160 bulls selected targeted sequencing of β-defensin genes. Genomic features where SNPs are located are identified in the key: intron (non-coding sections of DNA), upstream (5 k bp 5′UTR of a gene), intergenic region, downstream (5 k bp 3′UTR of a gene), exon (coding region), other (non-classified variants). Because the genes are found in four clusters a single SNP can have multiple annotations; for example, one may be downstream of one gene, upstream of a second and intergenic.
