Abstract

The protein composition and the milk yield (morning milking) were studied in 10 Chilean Holstein-Friesian first lactation dairy cows during the spring season. In addition, the genetic variants A and B of κ-casein (κ-CN) and β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) were also identified. The results showed that the casein content is significantly affected by the presence of B variant of κ-CN. Moreover, positive interactions between the B variant of κ-CN with AB of β-Lg and the combination of A κ-CN with AA of β-Lg for the total protein content, were found. © 2006 Society of Dairy Technology.
