A genome scan for milk production traits in dairy goats reveals two new mutations in Dgat1 reducing milk fat content
Abstract The quantity of milk and milk fat and proteins are particularly important traits in dairy livestock. However, little is known about the regions of the genome that influence these traits in goats. We conducted a genome wide association study in French goats and identified 109 regions associa...
