Gene expression patterns in anterior pituitary associated with quantitative measure of oestrous behaviour in dairy cows
Intensive selection for high milk yield in dairy cows has raised production levels substantially but at the cost of reduced fertility, which manifests in different ways including reduced expression of oestrous behaviour. The genomic regulation of oestrous behaviour in bovines remains largely unknown...
