Abstract excerpt
Genotypes at four casein (CSN) loci-A26181G of CSN1S1, C6227T of CSN1S2, A8101C of CSN2, and A13104C of CSN3-along with non-genetic factors were studied for their effects on various milk protein traits in 100 crossbred cows with major inheritance of Holstein Frisian (Bos taurus) and Tharparkar (Bos indicus). Results demonstrated the presence of all CSN genotypes with a predominance of heterozygotes. At CSN2...
