Abstract excerpt
Abnormal teat patterning phenotype (ATPP) is characterized by one (moderate form) or two (severe form) absent teats in cattle. Using an allele-sharing non-parametric linkage strategy, significant associations with severe ATPP animals were detected on BTA17 (Z(max) = 7.3 at 21 cM), centromeric BTA1 (Z(max) = 3.7 at 8 cM) and telomeric BTA1 (Z(max) = 4.8 at 142 cM). The BTA17 region was also significantly...
