Massive multi-omics data are generated to annotate animal genomes. However, how to use these datasets to improve genomic prediction and mapping is not clear. More importantly, how to use these datasets to improve agriculture in the changing climate is not understood.

Here we propose a new framework called “Functional-And-Evolutionary Multi-trait Importance (FAEMI) score”. Developed using a Bayesian method, we collected and analyzed annotation and omics data across multiple consortia, converting more than 2.3 millions of molecular phenotypes.

GSOR is validated by applying it to milk lipid traits in cattle, led by Ghoreishifar et al, and they identify potentially causal genes and pathways linked to milk composition: lnkd.in/gUyqvtG9

Estimated Breeding Value(EBV) or Polygenic Score(PGS) cal using genome-wide SNPs. We propose calculate EBV or PGS near genes - cis or local EBV/PGS to assoc with assayed gene expression to prioritise genes and tissues: Genetic score omics regression (GSOR)academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/a…

We collaborated on analysing MRI imaging data from the UK Biobank, found that visceral adipose tissue (abdominal fat) has stronger links to venous thromboembolism (blood clot) than BMI. Publication: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Complex trait analyses usually focus on trait means. We analysed trait variances in human blood cell phenotypes, yielding new biological/clinical insights: trait variation strongly negatively selected, impact polygenic score accuracy and highlights the effect of alcohol on health

Exciting global efforts to discover and use regulatory variants (eg, eQTLs, sQTLs) to enhance agriculture, evolution and biomedicine! Further reading for our pioneer work in Cattle GTEx: resource 👉nature.com/articles/s41588-0…; trait heritability dissection 👉sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Thrilled to share that The Farm Animal Genotype–Tissue Expression (FarmGTEx) Project perspective paper is out ⁦@NatureGenet⁩. Thank all the authors for the efforts and supports. Looking forward to seeing amazing science coming from this initiative. nature.com/articles/s41588-0…
