摘要:
The present invention generally relates to methods of identifying whether or not an animal carries a biological marker linked to animal productivity, more particularly, but not exclusively, to methods of identifying whether or not an animal carries a biological marker having a deleterious effect on animal productivity. The invention also relates to methods for selecting or rejecting one or more animals, cells or embryos, animal evaluation, breeding animals, and herd formation. The invention also relates to biological markers suitable for use in such methods. In particular, the present invention relates to genetic variations which disrupt the PLCD4 gene.
