Association of NOS2A gene polymorphisms with susceptibility to bovine tuberculosis in Chinese Holstein cattle.

Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a global zoonotic disease that has detrimental economic impacts worldwide. The NOS2A gene plays a key role in immunological control of many infectious diseases. However, research on the association between NOS2A polymorphisms and bTB infection in Holstein cattle reared o...

Association of NOS2A gene polymorphisms with susceptibility to bovine tuberculosis in Chinese Holstein cattle.
description Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a global zoonotic disease that has detrimental economic impacts worldwide.
