Diversity of the BoLA-DRB3 gene in cattle breeds from tropical and subtropical regions of Argentina
(Springer, 2021-12)
Bovine leukocyte antigens (BoLA) have been widely studied because of their primary function in the recognition of pathogens by the immune system. To date, however, the characterization of the BoLA-DRB3 gene in Latin American ...
History and selection imprinting on genetic relationships among bovine breeds analyzed trough five genes related with marbling
(Elsevier, 2011-04)
Many candidate genes have been suggested as responsible for marbling in beef cattle, for instance diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1, thyroglobulin, growth hormone, leptin and stearoyl CoA desaturase. The objective of the ...
La vaca ñata: una pregunta genética sin contestar
(Asociación Civil Ciencia Hoy, 2000-10)
El ganado bovino actual no fue domesticado en el continente sudamericano ni desciende de animales silvestres nativos de Sudamérica. Los especialistas piensan que todas las razas vacunas modernas provienen de dos especies ...
Analysis of a polymorphism in the DGAT1 gene in 14 cattle breeds through PCR-SSCP methods
(Elsevier, 2006-06)
The diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase (DGAT1) is a microsomal enzyme that catalyzes the final step of triglyceride synthesis. Recent work have evidenced a significant association between lysine at amino acid position 232 ...

(Asociación Latinoamericana de Producción Animal, 2022-04)
In Bolivia, beef production is mainly based on two genotypes,Bos taurus (Creole cattle) and B. indicus (zebu), being weight gain the main selection criteria used by farmers. However, meat quality and especially tenderness ...
Neospora caninum serostatus is affected by age and species variables in cohabiting water buffaloes and beef cattle
(Elsevier, 2014-07-14)
The aim of this study was to investigate how Neospora caninum serostatus may be affected by variables such as host species (water buffaloes or cattle) and age in animals cohabiting in the same ranch. A convenience ...
