Abstract excerpt
Crossbreeding indigenous cattle with high-yielding exotic breeds has been a key strategy in Indian dairy systems for increasing milk production. The Karan Fries (KF), a stabilised dairy cattle population derived from the Tharparkar and Holstein Friesian breeds, serves as a valuable genetic resource in India. Despite their adaptability and performance, the genomic architecture underpinning milk traits and stature...
