Identification of candidate genes for milk production traits by RNA sequencing on bovine liver at different lactation stages

Abstract Background RNA-sequencing was performed to explore the bovine liver transcriptomes of Holstein cows to detect potential functional genes related to lactation and milk composition traits in dairy cattle. The bovine transcriptomes of the nine liver samples from three Holstein cows during dry...
