Abstract excerpt
Substantial evidence demonstrates that the genetic background of milk production traits changes during lactation. However, most GWAS for milk production traits assume that genetic effects are constant during lactation and therefore might miss those quantitative trait loci (QTL) whose effects change during lactation. The GWAS for genotype by lactation stage interaction are aimed at explicitly detecting the QTL...
