Ways to reduce allergy to cattle milk in Yakutia via gene β-lactoglobulin genotyping
Abstract
In order to reduce the incidence of milk allergy among residents of Yakutia, Russia we studied an allelic and genotype variation of betalactoglobulin gene of cattle breed in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Allele distribution analysis of beta-lactoglobulin gene among the studied breeds demonstrated that the frequency of allele B prevails in Kholmogor cattle, local selection of Simmental cattle and especially in Kalmyk cattle. The genotype associated with the low content of milk serum proteins, and therefore hypoallergenic milk is BB genotype. This genotype was observed most often in cows of Kalmyk breed and cows of local Simmental breed.
The use of marker-assisted selection in dairy cattle will facilitate the increase in number of individuals with BB genotype of beta-lactoglobulin gene which is critical for the reduction of incidence of atopic allergies in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
