Abstract excerpt
To identify molecular genetic markers of resistance or susceptibility to dermatophilosis in cattle, we used a functional candidate gene approach to analyze the DNA polymorphisms of targeted genes encoding molecules implicated in known mechanisms of both nonspecific and specific immune responses existing in the pathogen/host interface mechanisms. The most significant results were obtained within the Major...
