Abstract: Abstract Worldwide use of elite sires has caused inbreeding accumulation and high frequencies of genetic defects in dairy cattle populations. In recent years, several genetic defect genes or haplotypes have been identified in Holstein cattle.… read more here.

Abstract: Holstein haplotype 2 (HH2) is embryonic lethal and carried by 1.21% of the US Holstein population. Using next-generation sequencing, we identified a high-impact frameshift mutation in intraflagellar protein 80 (IFT80) as the putative causal mutation.… read more here.
