On the origin of Indonesian cattle. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Two bovine species contribute to the Indonesian livestock, zebu (Bos indicus) and banteng (Bos javanicus), respectively. Although male hybrid offspring of these species is not fertile, Indonesian cattle breeds are supposed to be of mixed ...

Molecular characterization and A1/A2 genotyping of casein beta gene in zebu and crossbred cattle of Bangladesh

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2022
Casein beta (CSN2) is the most explored gene in cattle due to its potential impact on human health. Here, we investigated the entire coding sequence of CSN2 gene except the last two codons for detection of polymorphisms in different cattle populations of
