Short communication: Genetic characterization of digital cushion thickness.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Jan 2014

Oikonomou G, Banos G, Machado V, Caixeta L, Bicalho R C

Abstract excerpt

Dairy cow lameness is a serious animal welfare issue. It is also a significant cause of economic losses, reducing reproductive efficiency and milk production and increasing culling rates. The digital cushion is a complex structure composed mostly of adipose tissue located underneath the distal phalanx and has recently been phenotypically associated with incidence of claw horn disruption lesions (CHDL); namely,...
