Discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms in candidate genes associated with fertility and production traits in Holstein cattle

BACKGROUND: Identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for specific genes involved in reproduction might improve reliability of genomic estimates for these low-heritability traits. Semen from 550 Holstein bulls of high (≥ 1.7; n = 288) or low (≤ −2; n = 262) daughter pregnancy rate (DP...
