Cattle with the BoLA class II DRB3*0902 allele have significantly lower bovine leukemia proviral loads
The bovine MHC (BoLA) class II DRB3 alleles are associated with polyclonal expansion of lymphocytes caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV) infection in cattle. To examine whether the DRB3*0902 allele, one of the resistance-associated alleles, is associated with the proviral load, we measured BLV proviral load of BLV-infected cattle and clarified their DRB3 alleles. Fifty-seven animals with DRB3*...
متن کاملAssociation of Bovine Follicular Stimulating Hormone (FSHβ) Gene Polymorphism with Reproduction Traits in Iranian Holstein Bulls
The present study was aimed to examine the association of bovine follicular stimulating hormone gene polymorphism with sperm quality traits including sperm volume (SV), sperm concentration (SPCO), total sperm (TS), fresh sperm motility (FSM), total fresh motile sperm (TFMS), post thaw sperm motility (PTSM), total post thaw motile sperm (TPTMS), number of produced payout (NPP), number of fresh m...
متن کاملBovine leukemia virus p24 antibodies reflect blood proviral load
BACKGROUND Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is worldwide distributed and highly endemic in Argentina. Among the strategies to prevent BLV dissemination, a control plan based on the selective segregation of animals according to their proviral load (PVL) is promising for our dairy productive system. The objective of this work was to study the relationship between the blood PVL and the antibody level, ...
متن کاملThe diversity of bovine MHC class II DRB3 genes in Japanese Black, Japanese Shorthorn, Jersey and Holstein cattle in Japan.
We sequenced exon 2 of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II DRB3 gene from 471 individuals in four different Japanese populations of cattle (201 Japanese Black, 101 Holstein, 100 Japanese Shorthorn, and 69 Jersey cattle) using a new method for sequence-based typing (SBT). We identified the 34 previously reported alleles and four novel alleles. These alleles were 80.0-100.0% ident...
متن کاملMajor Histocompatibility Complex Polymorphism in Reptile Conservation
—Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are closely related to disease resistance and immune response in vertebrates. Although many groups are well represented in the MHC literature, less attention has been given to reptiles. Here we summarize reptile MHC studies, review published accounts investigating links between MHC polymorphism, parasite resistance, and mate choice, evaluate ...
