"Epigenetic Breakthrough: CoRSIVs Found in Both Humans and Cattle"

Researchers from Baylor College of Medicine, Cornell University, and the USDA have discovered CoRSIVs (correlated regions of systemic inter-individual variation) in cattle, similar to those found in humans. These regions, marked by DNA methylation, could help predict and select desirable traits in cattle, such as milk production and disease resistance, potentially improving agricultural efficiency and sustainability.
