BoLA Class II Genes: Polymorphism, Disease Association and Linkage Relationships With the Prolactin and Bola-A Genes
… II genes of the BoLA complex than with BoLA-A. Polymorphisms of BoLA-DQB and -DRB2 genes were identified using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. All carriers of DRB2*2A were found to be resistant to PL (P $<$ 0.005), whereas DRB2*1C homozygotes were at higher risk for the …
