SELECTION-GENETIC METHOD FOR OBTAINING HIGH-PERFORMANCE AND PERSISTENT LYMPHOCYTOSIS-RESISTANT CATTLE STOCK Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC A01K67/02 

FIELD: zootechny, veterinary science.

SUBSTANCE: it is necessary to establish the genotypes of cows and breeding bulls in breeding stock according to BoLA DRB3 gene. Animals should be divided into groups by different sensitivity to persistent lymphocytosis: with genotype including two alleles referring to sensitivity (S/S); with genotype including two alleles referring to resistance (R/R), with genotype including one allele referring to sensitivity and another one - to resistance (S/R), with genotype including two neutral alleles (N/N), with genotype including one allele referring to sensitivity and another being neutral (S/N), with genotype including one allele referring to resistance and another being neutral (R/N). For reproduction it is necessary to match parental couples as follows: one parent with genotype R/R, another - S/S; or one parent with genotype S/R, and another S/S; or one parent with genotype N/R, and another - S/R; or one parent with genotype N/S, and another R/R. The innovation enables to increase resistance to persistent lymphocytosis in cattle along with the increase of cattle performance.

EFFECT: higher efficiency.
