Abstract excerpt
The maternal effect has been widely proposed to affect the production traits in domestic animals. However, the sequence polymorphisms of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and association with milk production traits in Holstein cows have remained unclear. In this study, we investigated the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of mtDNA ATPase 8/6 genes and association with four milk production traits of interest in 303...
