Abstract excerpt
The relationship between K232A polymorphism of the DGAT1 gene and milk yield and composition was evaluated by meta-analysis of pooled data of more than 10,000 genotyped cattle. Four genetic models, including dominant (AA+KA vs. KK), recessive (AA vs. KA+KK), additive (AA vs. KK), and co-dominant (AA+KK vs. KA) were used to analyze the data. The standardized mean difference (SMD) was used to measure the size of...
