| 中文描述 | DUMPS,尿核苷單磷酸鹽合成酶缺乏症是荷仕登牛的隱性遺傳疾病.帶有尿核苷單磷酸鹽合成酶缺乏症的公牛和帶有尿核苷單磷酸鹽合成酶缺乏症的母牛交配後所產的後代有25%為同型結合的隱性基因,會導致懷孕40天的胚胎死亡且生產期變長.公牛在人工採精前測試的DUMPS為陰性將可預防母畜群中有異型結合子的母畜量減少. |
| 英文描述 | DUMPS, deficiency of uridine monophosphate synthase, is an inherited recessive condition in Holstein cattle. Mating of a DUMPS carrier bull to a DUMPS carrier female should result in about 25% of the offspring being homozygous for the recessive gene, leading to death of the embryo at about 40 days after conception and an extended calving interval. The prevalance of heterozygotes in the female population is low and probably declining as most bulls in artificial insemination have been tested negative for DUMPS. |
