Short communication: heritability of milk fatty acid composition and stearoyl-CoA desaturase indices in dairy cows.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Apr 2010

Garnsworthy P C, Feng S, Lock A L, Royal M D

Abstract excerpt

Activity of stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) in the mammary gland is important for determining the relative proportions of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids in milk and the concentration of the conjugated linoleic acid isomer rumenic acid (RA; cis-9,trans-11 18:2). Previous studies identified a large degree of between-cow variation in SCD activity, which was consistent across diets and suggests a genetic...
