Genetic polymorphism and association of kappa-casein gene with milk production traits among Frieswal (HF × Sahiwal) cross breed of Indian origin.

چکیده
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) and 0.42 (n=83), respectively. The calculated allele frequency for A and B was 0.79 and 0.21, respectively. Association of genotypes with certain milk production traits revealed that AB had significant (P<0.05) effect on total milk yield, peak yield, yield at 300 days and SNF% as compared to AA.

Realizing the significant association of A1 and A2 β-casein (CSN2) polymorphism with health promoting properties and milk performance traits, the present investigation was undertaken to explore A1/A2 polymorphism in Indian zebu breed, Ongole (Bos indicus) and crossbred, Frieswal (HF × Sahiwal) cattle using allele-specific (AS)-PCR. Thirty eight Ongole cow, 124 Frieswal heifers and 48 Frieswal b...

The positional candidate gene DGAT1, within QTL of BTA14, harboring a lysine to alanine substitution (K232A) is significantly associated with milk production traits. The present investigation was undertaken to estimate the frequency of the DGAT1 K232A polymorphism in Indian zebu breed, Sahiwal (B. indicus; N= 51) and crossbred, Frieswal (HF X Sahiwal; N= 126) cattle using PCR-RFLP technique. De...
متن کاملStatus of β-casein (CSN2) Polymorphism in Frieswal (HF X Sahiwal Crossbred) Cattle
Cow milk is a rich source of protein and selected micronutrients such as calcium. Recently, a relationship between disease risk and consumption of a specific bovine β-casein fraction either A1 or A2 genetic variants has been identified. Polymorphism at codon 67 of the beta-casein gene: CCT→CAT causes a substitution of amino acid proline (in A2 variant) by histidine (in A1 variant). The presence...
متن کاملInvestigation of Kappa Casein Gene Polymorphism by PCR-RFLP in Najdi Cattle Breed Population in Khuzestan Province
More than 80% of the total milk protein contains caseins that are to forms α-s1, α-s2, β-casein and kappa casein. Kappa casein is smaller than other milk proteins but due to have a role in size and stability of micelles. The present study describes polymorphism of kappa casein gene. This is the first study of kappa casein gene polymorphism in Najdi cattle of Iran. We used the polymerase chain r...
