Abstract excerpt
On the basis of fine mapping of a quantitative trait loci region of BTA3 for milk fat content, an examination of the comparative map between cattle and human indicates that the annexin 9 protein gene (ANXA9) and the fatty acid transport protein type 3 gene (SLC27A3) are two strong candidate genes. The objective of the present study is to isolate, map and characterize these genes and identify polymorphisms that...
