Abstract:ABSTRACT:With the decrease in fertility in dairy cow, the interest towards means to control this variable through genetic selection is growing. One of the most important factors controlling follicular maturity and timely ovulation is the aromatase enzyme, which is encoded by the CYP19A1 gene. The activity of this enzyme is potentially the limiting factor in postpartum fertility. In this study, we developed a methodology, based on genetical genomics, to model the aromatase expression profile from granulosa cell… Show more
