Estimation of Heritability of Karan Fries Cattle using Bayesian Procedure
  The Bayesian model was applied for analyzing the first lactation in Karan Fries cattle. First lactation data of production (305-day or less milk yield and daily milk yield) were collected from the history-cum pedigree sheet and daily milk yield ...

Genetic variation in bovine LAP3 and SIRT1 genes associated with fertility traits in dairy cattle [PDF]
Background The genetic progress of fertility and reproduction traits in dairy cattle has been constrained by the low heritability of these traits. Identifying candidate genes and variants associated with fertility and reproduction could enhance the ...
