Abstract excerpt
In this study, we report an approach to characterize individual BoLA haplotypes using cells from parthenogenetic bovine embryos derived from slaughterhouse ovaries. Eight of the 15 parthenogenetic embryos so obtained had not undergone meiotic recombination on the BoLA region and were suitable to describe BoLA haplotypes. Detailed analysis of the BoLA class IIa region identified seven different class IIa...
