<p>Residual feed intake is a measure of feed efficiency in beef cattle which is an economically important trait in beef production. Gene expression is the key determinant of cellular phenotype and genome-wide expression analysis will provide insight into the molecular events underlying biology of feed efficiency. We carried out genome-wide gene expression in liver, muscle and blood with total 199 samples and micorRNA expression with 96 samples. These datasets provide a resource of expression QTL mapping for understanding the functional consequences of genetic variation, and how it affects feed efficiency in beef cattle.</p>
