  • Relevance of genetic research for milk production and udder health
    Ogorevc, Jernej, 1979- ...
    Development of molecular genetics and in the last period rapid advancement of genomic thechnology enabled research towards molecular architecture of mammary gland related traits. A number of genetic ... markers, associated with functional mutations in candidate genes allows application of DNA polymorphisms in selection procedures leading to marker assisted selection. In addition to specific milk trait related genes, there is also an important field of research covering health traits and improvement of animal welfare and robustness. Combination of large amounts of data with bioinformatics tools opens a new approach in mammary gland biology research, which is heavily dependent on large amounts of data and enables efficient combination of different types of data for more profound analysis of biological problems. For practical animal breeding and veterinary medicine these new technologies offer for the first time the possibility to select directly for favourable genetic vaiants, rather for phenotypic traits which might be heavily biased by environmental factors.
