Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Infection of livestock with bovine tuberculosis (bTB; Mycobacterium bovis) is of major economical concern in many countries; approximately 15 000 to 20 000 cattle are infected per year in Ireland. The objective of this study was to quantify the genetic variation for bTB susceptibility in Irish dairy and beef cattle. METHODS: A total of 105 914 cow, 56 904 heifer and 21 872 steer single intra-dermal...
