Genetic variation in the first intron and exon of the myostatin gene in several Indonesian cattle populations [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2021
Background and Aim: Myostatin (MSTN), a member of the transforming growth factor-β family, is a negative regulator of muscle mass. This study aimed to detect the genetic variation of the 1160 bp fragment of exon 1 and part of intron 1 of the MSTN gene in

Genome-wide methylation and transcriptome of blood neutrophils reveal the roles of DNA methylation in affecting transcription of protein-coding genes and miRNAs in E. coli-infected mastitis cows

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Neutrophils are the first effectors of inflammatory response triggered by mastitis infection, and are important defense cells against pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli).

Predicting Bovine Respiratory Disease Risk in Feedlot Cattle in the First 45 Days Post Arrival

Pathogens, 2022
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is the leading cause of morbidity in feedlot cattle. The ability to accurately identify the expected BRD risk of cattle would allow managers to detect high-risk animals more frequently.

In silico genome-wide miRNA-QTL-SNPs analyses identify a functional SNP associated with mastitis in Holsteins

BMC Genetics, 2019
Background Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in microRNAs (miRNAs) and their target binding sites affect miRNA function and are involved in biological processes and diseases, including bovine mastitis, a frequent inflammatory disease.

SNP Data Quality Control in a National Beef and Dairy Cattle System and Highly Accurate SNP Based Parentage Verification and Identification

Frontiers in Genetics, 2018
A major use of genetic data is parentage verification and identification as inaccurate pedigrees negatively affect genetic gain. Since 2012 the international standard for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) verification in Bos taurus cattle has been the
