Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) gene are associated with performance in Holstein-Friesian dairy cattle
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) has been shown to be associated with fertility, growth and development in cattle. The aim of this study was to 1) identify novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the bovine IGF-1 gene and alongside previously identified SNPs 2) determine their associatio...
