Project name: Oryctolagus cuniculus

Description: This project investigates Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) susceptibility in a population of european rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Australia. Genetic loci associated with survival or death were identified in a GWAS using RAD tag SNPs. Wild samples were collected between 1999 and 2010 near Turretfield Research Centre (South Australia).
