Publication number: 20100003675Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining mastitis resistance in bovine subjects, wherein mastitis resistance comprise resistance to both sub-clinical and clinical mastitis. In particular, the method of the invention involves identification of genetic markers and/or Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) for the determination of mastitis resistance in a bovine subject. The determination of mastitis resistance involves resolution of the specific microsatellite status. Furthermore, the invention relates to a diagnostic kit for detection of genetic marker(s) associated with mastitis resistance. The method and kit of the present invention can be applied for selection of bovine subjects for breeding purposes. Thus, the invention provides a method of genetically selecting bovine subjects with mastitis resistance, thereby yielding cows less prone to mastitis.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 5, 2007Publication date: January 7, 2010Applicants: MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Aarhus Universitet, Estonian University of Life SciencesInventors: Mogens Sando Lund, Bente Flugel Majgren, Goutam Sahana, Ayman Mahmoud Sabry, Peter Sorensen, Soren Svendsen, Bo Thomsen, Ingrid Lena Anderson-Eklund, Helmi Johanna Vilkki, Christian Bendixen, Terhi Katariina Iso-Touru, Sirja Maria Viitala, Nina Frederika Schulman, Nicola Hastings, John Lewis William Williams, John Arthur Woolliams, Ana Isabel Fernandez Avila, Haldja Viinalass, Sirje Varv
