Microarray data analysis of gene expression levels in lactating cows treated with bovine somatotropin

Administration of bovine somatotropin (bST) to lactating cows results in an increase in milk production from 10 to 15%. While physiological mechanisms involved in bST administration are well known, there is limited knowledge about the mechanisms that regulate the bST action at genetic level. For thi...
