Identification of milk protein percentage QTLs in Italian Friesian cattle by selective genotyping two GDD families with AFLP and SSR markers

In this work we evaluated the combined use of AFLP markers and selective genotyping in a Grand Daughter experimental design (GDD), to identify chromosomal regions candidate to contain QTL for milk protein percentage (PP) in Italian Friesian cattle. We verified the approach by microsatellite analysis...
