A Functional SNP Variant of the 3′ UTR Within the ELF5 Gene Affects Lactation Traits Through bta-miR-487a-Mediated Regulation in Holstein Dairy Cattle
The genetic and physiological variations among individuals of Holstein dairy cattle contribute to variations in milk yield. Selecting high-yield cows is critical for improving lactation performance. The present study aimed to identify functional genetic variants of the 3′ untranslated region (3′ UTR) in the ELF5 gene a...
