چکیده

The impact of polymorphism of the diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT1), butyrophilin (BTN1A1), oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor (OLR1), and signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) genes on milk production and reproduction traits in 419 Czech Fleckvieh cows was examined using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism. The loci DGAT1 and BTN1A1 were observed simultaneously to affect milk production, estimated breeding value of milk production traits, as well as reproduction parameters. Significant differences were found also between genotypes of the STAT1 loci in relation to estimated breeding value of milk production traits. Similar findings in pure dairy breeds suggest that heterogeneous effects of the observed loci can be explained by different genetic backgrounds in various breed populations selected to achieve different commercial goals. Thus, it is necessary to determine variability and influence of a molecular marker in a specific population when considering its inclusion into a breeding programme.

Association between CSN3 and BCO2 gene polymorphisms and milk performance traits in the Czech Fleckvieh cattle breed.

Daily milk, fat and protein yield and amount of somatic cells in cow milk are very important factors that influence milk performance traits. An association between polymorphisms in the kappa casein (CSN3) gene and milk production, composition and technical properties has been previously reported; however, this type of information is not available for the bovine β-carotene oxygenase 2 (BCO2) gen...

A Research on Association between SCD1 and OLR1 Genes and Milk Production Traits in Iranian Holstein Dairy Cattle

The present study was carried out to investigate the association of C/T single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)in exon 5 of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) gene and A/C SNP in the 3' untranslated region of oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (OLR1)gene with milk production traits in Iranian Holstein dairy Cattle. The blood samples of 153 (for OLR1) and 308 (for SCD1) dairy cattle from thre...

Effects of DGAT1 variants on milk production traits in German cattle breeds.

Various QTL mapping experiments led to the detection of a QTL in the centromeric region of cattle chromosome 14 that had a major effect on the fat content of milk. Recently, the gene encoding diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase (DGAT1) was proposed to be a positional and functional candidate for this trait. This study investigated the effects of a nonconservative lysine to alanine (K232A) substitu...

Joint Analysis of the DGAT1, OPN and PPARGC1A Genes Effects on Variation of Milk Production and Composition in Holstein Cattle Population

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of DGAT1, OPN and PPARGC1A candidate genes on milk production traits in Iranian Holstein cattle. Several papers have studied single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their association with economic traits in dairy cows, but the combined effect of these genes has not been examined in Iranian Holstein cattle population. Blood samples were collect...

Effect of Stat1 Variants on Milk Production Traits in Esfahan Holstein Cows

STATs are a family of latent transcription factors that reside in the cytoplasm of resting cells. The STAT1 transcription factor gene located on the chromosome 2 at interval 60 to 63 cM. This factor upon stimulation with INF gamma, dimerizes and translocate to the nucleus where mediates transcriptional regulation. In this study, we estimated the allele and genotype frequencies of STAT1/Pag<...
