Abstract excerpt
The JAK-STAT pathway plays a key role in host immunity. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in STAT5A and JAK2 genes on some serum cytokines, mastitis and milk production traits. Two SNPs (SNP1 43046497A/C and SNP2 43047829G/A) in STAT5A, and four SNPs in JAK2 (SNP3 39652267A/G, SNP4 39630048C/T, SNP5 39631044G/A, and SNP6 39631175T/C) were revealed and...
