Abstract excerpt
In a previous study, we identified candidate causative variants located in 24 functional candidate genes for milk protein and fatty acid composition in Montbéliarde, Normande, and Holstein cows. We designed these variants on the custom part of the EuroG10K BeadChip (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA), which is routinely used for genomic selection analyses in French dairy cattle. To validate the effects of these...
