Download or read book The Genetics of Cattle, 2nd Edition written by Dorian Garrick and published by CABI. This book was released on 2014-11-28 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the time of domestication more than 10,000 years ago, cattle have played an increasingly crucial role in the development of human civilizations. Progress has been quite remarkable since the turn of the century; the sequencing of the bovine genome in 2009 launched new avenues for furthering our understanding of theoretical and practical aspects of cattle genetics. Covering a vast array of questions, this book reviews major topics from molecular and developmental genetics, disease resistance and immunogenetics to genetic improvement of dairy and beef breeds, addressing all current problems in the field. This second edition includes a new team of authors and completely new chapters on the genetics of fat production, nutrition, feed intake and efficiency, growth and body composition. Fully updated throughout, it provides a valuable resource on cattle genetics for researchers, breeders, veterinarians and postgraduate students.

This book was released on 2018-05-02 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genetic Correlations Between Milk Production and Meat Production Traits in Milking Shorthorn Cattle A knowledge of the genetic relationships between lactation and growth and carcass traits in cattle is basic to an understanding of the degree to which excellence in desired characters can be combined in the same animal. The magnitude of positive or negative associations among traits is a major factor in determining whether the beef and dairy industries should use specialized types or dual-purpose types. A question of equal importance relates to the indirect effects, if any. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Functional and Genetic Characterisation of Major Effect Milk Composition Variants in Dairy Cattle written by Tania Alice Fink and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bovine milk production and composition traits are complex quantitative phenotypes, reflecting the interplay of many environmental and genetic factors influencing mammary and lactation biology. Despite a largely quantitative architecture, genetic mapping studies have identified a handful of major effect loci in dairy cattle, each containing a large number of trait-associated sequence variants. Identifying the specific variant causally responsible at these genetic signals requires extensive experimental follow-up, where many of the genomic regions implicate present no obvious candidate mutations. The association signal is instead represented by many non-coding variants that are difficult to functionally prioritise. The aim of the research described in this thesis was to investigate four such loci segregating in NZ dairy cattle, aiming to mechanistically link causative genes and variants to the milk production and composition effects. The results of this thesis describe the identification of expression quantitative trait loci at each of the four major associated regions, providing evidence that the variants responsible exert their phenotypic influence through the modulation of mammary gene expression. Further genetic and functional experiments were conducted to elucidate the mechanism by which the implicated variants impact gene expression. Highlights of this work include the demonstration of a new mechanism of effect for the largest and most highly cited causal mutation in the bovine literature. This work also reports the discovery of major milk production effects for a mutation previously only implicated in bovine growth and stature. This thesis also reports the development and optimisation of CRISPR-Cas9 mediated genome editing as a method for testing the function of regulatory variants directly. By presenting an efficient in vitro engineering approach in mammary cells, the work creates a framework to genetically isolate candidate variants, creating opportunities to study the major effect variants reported in this thesis, and investigate other as yet undefined milk composition loci. Taken together, the work presented in this thesis provides enhanced understanding of the mechanisms linking major effect genetic variants to bovine milk production and composition, and raises the profile of these and other variants as markers to incorporate in animal selection and breeding strategies.

This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decades, various mapping experiments resulted in the detection of several markers affecting milk production traits on bovine chromosome 6. The aim of this study was to identify causative polymorphisms of milk traits using a multiple breed approach. Six selected candidate genes on chromosome 6 in cattle were characterised and screened for polymorphisms. Following this, 50 polymorphisms were genotyped in sires of German Brown, Fleckvieh and German Holstein for investigation in association studies with milk production traits. In particular, associated polymorphisms were obtained for fat- and protein yield. However, since polymorphisms were associated depending on breed, gene and trait under consideration, the causality of associated polymorphisms could not be confirmed.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular approaches have opened new windows on a host of ecological and evolutionary disciplines, ranging from population genetics and behavioral ecology to conservation biology and systematics. Molecular Markers, Natural History and Evolution summarizes the multi-faceted discoveries about organisms in nature that have stemmed from analyses of genetic markers provided by polymorphic proteins and DNAs. The first part of the book introduces rationales for the use of molecular markers, provides a history of molecular phylogenetics, and describes a wide variety of laboratory methods and interpretative tools in the field. The second and major portion of the book provides a cornucopia of biological applications for molecular markers, organized along a scale from micro-evolutionary topics (such as forensics, parentage, kinship, population structure, and intra-specific phylogeny) to macro-evolutionary themes (including species relationships and the deeper phylogenetic structure in the tree of life). Unlike most prior books in molecular evolution, the focus is on organismal natural history and evolution, with the macromolecules being the means rather than the ends of scientific inquiry. Written as an intellectual stimulus for the advanced undergraduate, graduate student, or the practicing biologist desiring a wellspring of research ideas at the interface of molecular and organismal biology, this book presents material in a manner that is both technically straightforward, yet rich with concepts and with empirical examples from the world of nature.
