Abstract excerpt
The effects of kappa-casein (CN) and beta-lactoglobulin (LG) genotypes on milk protein concentration and composition were estimated for the US Holstein-Friesian population using a single-trait, mixed, linear animal model on 592 individual milk samples from 233 cows. Both milk protein genotypes had no statistically significant effect on the total milk protein concentration; however, substitution of the kappa-CN A...
