Association of BoLA DRB3 and DQA1 alleles with susceptibly to Neospora caninum and reproductive outcome in Quebec Holstein cattle

The BoLA DRB3 and DQA1 genes are part of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II in cattle. These genes are highly polymorphic and have been associated with resistance to several diseases, such as mastitis, Bovine Leukemia Virus (BLV) and dermatophilis. Sequenced based typing of these ge...
