Johne's disease is a contagious bacterial infection of cattle caused by ssp. (). A previous genome-wide association analysis (GWAA) in Holstein cattle identified QTL on BTA3 and BTA9 that were highly associated (P < 5 × 10) and on BTA1, BTA16, and BTA21 that were moderately associated (P < 5 × 10) with Map tissue infection.
