Abstract excerpt
Mutations within a number of genes have been associated with variations in fertility in various mammals. However, to date there have been no such associations reported for cattle. Herein, we describe three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor gene of cattle (Bos taurus). These polymorphisms include two missense mutations and one sense mutation, and all are...
