Genetic diversity of BoLA-DRB3 in South American Zebu cattle populations

Genetic diversity of BoLA-DRB3 in South American Zebu cattle populations

Abstract Background Bovine leukocyte antigens (BoLAs) are used extensively as markers of disease and immunological traits in cattle. However, until now, characterization of BoLA gene polymorphisms in Zebu breeds using high resolution typing methods has been poor. Here, we used a polymerase chain rea...
