Abstract

This study investigated the impact of 6 polymorphisms located in theABCG2, PPARGC1A, OLR1 andSCD1 genes on estimated breeding values for milk production, longevity, somatic cell count and reproductive traits. The analysis was conducted on 453 Polish Holstein-Friesian bulls. Genotypes were identified using PCR-RFLP, and haplotype inferences were performed for 3 linked mutations ofPPARGC1A. The most significant associations were found between the A/C polymorphism located in exon 14 ofABCG2 and milk fat production traits as well as calving-to-first insemination interval, and between the T/C substitution in intron 9 of thePPARGC1A and non-return rate in heifers.
