SLC27A1 GENE POLYMORPHISM ANALYSIS IN RELATION TO MILK PRODUCTION TRAITS IN JERSEY COWS
Journal Title: Folia Pomeranae Universitatis Technologiae Stetinensis Agricultura Alimentaria Piscaria et Zootechnica - Year 2016, Vol 38, Issue 326
Abstract
The aim was to establish possible associations between the g.14791C>T and g.14589A>G SNPs in the SLC27A1 gene and milk production traits as well as somatic cell count in milk of Jersey cows. No significant associations were found between the genotypes and the analyzed traits. Further study on a larger number of animals is necessary to determine the potential effect of this SNP on the fat yield and fat content in milk.<br/><br/>
