in this research, in order to describe milk production traits lactation mahabadi goat breed, seven statistical functions were fitted using 1665 milk production traits records and 833 body weight records. the milk production traits were milk yield, fat percent, fat yield, protein percent, protein yield, lactose percent and snf percent. these records have been recorded on 123 goats during years o...

the aim of the present study was to screen the genotype profile of bovine kappa-casein gene among frieswal (hf × sahiwal) crossbred cattle developed in india. a total number of two hundred frieswal cows were evaluated for hinfi rflp based genotyping of kappa-casein gene. we observed that only two genotypes (aa and ab) exist among the studied population with the genotype frequency of 0.58 (n=117...

The objective of this study was to analyze the correlation between Holstein body conformation traits and milk production traits in the Shanghai region. In total, 871 Holstein cows were randomly chosen from 28 dairy farms in Shanghai at second stage of lactation as the object of our study. Five milk production traits, including 305-d milk yield, butter fat percentage, milk protein percentage, pe...

The aim of this study was to estimate allelic and genotypic frequencies of five DNA markers that are positional and functional candidates for milk production traits in Czech Fleckvieh cattle. In addition, we evaluated the association of these markers with milk production traits and breeding values for milk production traits and also estimated linkage disequilibrium (LD) between two markers with...

abcg2 (atp binding cassette subfamily g member 2) gene, located on chromosome 6 encodes the abcg2 protein that transports various xenobiotics, cytostatic drugs across the plasma membrane as well as cholesterol into milk. a single nucleotide change (a/c) in base 86 of exon 14 is capable of encoding a substitution of tyrosine with serine in the abcg2 gene and increase milk yield while decreasing ...

the objective of this study was to determine the polymorphism of bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) gene and its association with milk production traits in iranian najdi cattle. blood samples were collected from 80 najdi cattle from the najdi cattle breeding station located in shoshtar, khuzestan. polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp) techniqus were used...
