Abstract excerpt
Bovine respiratory disease is a leading health problem in feedlot cattle. Identification of affecting genes is essential for selection for decrease sensitivity. Chromosome X is a special attractive target for gene mapping in light of reports on both sexual dimorphism in immunity and higher susceptibility of males to this disease. However, diagnosis is challenging and clinical signs often go undetected. Kosher...
