Abstract excerpt
The transcription factor paired box 6 gene (PAX6) plays a key role during the early development of various organs. In this study, three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified in the introns 2, 8 and 11 of the bovine PAX6 gene. 8 haplotypes and 13 diplotypes were revealed and the linkage disequilibrium (LD) was assessed in 817 cows representing four main cattle breeds from China (Nanyang, NY;...
