Cows with diverging haplotypes show differences in differential milk cell count, milk parameters and vaginal temperature after s. aureus challenge but not after e. coli challenge

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The aim of this study was to compare the differential milk cell count (DMCC) milk param‑ eters (fat % protein % lactose % pH) and VT between favorable (Q) and unfavorable (q) haplotype cows using Bayes‑ ian models to evaluate their potential as improved early indicators of differential susceptibility to mastitis. The aim of this study was to explore whether cows with similar overall genetic backgrounds (paternal half-sibs) but divergent BTA18 paternal haplotypes show differential early responses to mastitis pathogen challenge in acute or chronic mastitis models. The aim of this study was to compare the differential milk . . .
