Somatic cell score: gene polymorphisms and other effects in Holstein and Simmental cows

Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of gene polymorphisms and nongenetic factors on the somatic cell score (SCS) in the milk of Holstein (n = 148) and Simmental (n = 73) cows and their crosses (n = 6).
