First DNA Sequencing in Beninese Indigenous Cattle Breeds Captures New Milk Protein Variants

This study investigated polymorphisms in the milk protein genes <i>CSN1S1</i>, <i>CSN2</i>, <i>CSN1S2</i>, <i>CSN3</i>, <i>LALBA</i>, and <i>LGB</i>, and casein haplotypes in Beninese indigenous cattle. Considering 67 animals, D...
