CA 2479006

The present invention concerns methods and kits for determining milk production potential in an animal by analyzing the polymorphism of its Pit-1 and K-casein genes. More particularly, the invention concerns a method for identifying a mammal with a genotype that is indicative of advantageous milk production traits, comprising a step for analyzing the polymorphism of the Pit- 1 and K-casein genes of said mammal, in which the simultaneous presence of allele A and/or T of the Pit-1 gene and allele B of the K-casein gene is indicative of high potential for milk production and protein production in said mammal.

La présente invention concerne des procédés et des matériels permettant de déterminer le potentiel de production laitière chez un animal par analyse du polymorphisme de ses gènes Pit-1 et de k-caséine. Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne un procédé d'identification d'un mammifère ayant un génotype indiquant des traits de production laitière avantageux, comprenant une étape consistant à analyser le polymorphisme des gènes Pit-1 et de k-caséine dudit mammifère, dans laquelle la présence simultanée de l'allèle A/ou T du gène Pit-1 et de l'allèle B du gène de k-caséine indique un fort potentiel de production laitière et de production de protéines chez ledit mammifère.
