Abstract
- The article evaluates the frequency of three novel polymorphisms of bovine Slc11A1 gene, namely p.D321N, p.P356A, and p.Q542del, genotyped in cows with Brucella (B.) abortus in Brazil and its association to the resistant or susceptible phenotypes to brucellosis in cows. All heifers used in the study were serologically negative for brucellosis before challenge. The results indicate a link between Slc11A1 genotype and actual resistance.
