Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have reported significant associations between haplotypes of the oxidized low-density lipoprotein (lectin-like) receptor 1 (OLR1) gene and a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in its 3'-untranslated region with milk composition and health traits in different cattle populations. However, to provide a better estimation of the impact and size of the association of OLR1 with production traits, a...
