| Summary: | The goal of the paper was to identify genetic structure of five candidate
genes for milk production in Slovak Pinzgau breed. A total of 86 mothers of
bulls of Slovak Pinzgau cattle were use in this study. To genotype of cows
for candidate genes we used PCR methods (PCR-RFLP, ARMS-PCR, multiplex
PCR-RFLP). On the basis of PCR analyses we established genotype structure of
cattle population and calculated allelic frequencies. Effectiveness of allele
incidence and genetic diversity was evaluated with following parameters:
theoretical heterozygosity (He exp), experimental heterozygosity (He obs),
polymorphism information content (PIC), expected homozygosity (E), effective
number of alleles (ENA), level of possible variability realization (V%).
Slovak Pinzgau cattle exhibit the high values of heterozygosity, polymorphism
information content, effective number of alleles and level of possible
variability realization for genes CSN2, CSN3 and LALBA. In opposite, for
genes CSN1S1 and LGB show high values of homozygosity. |
