Antibiotic treatments and somatic cell count as phenotype to map QTL for mastitis susceptibility in Holstein cattle breed

Mastitis is one of the most significant diseases affecting dairy cattle profitability. A genome wide association study (GWAS) was performed using the selective genotyping approach to identify Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) associated with mastitis susceptibility. According to the received antibiotic...
