“…The Bovine PRL gene has been mapped to chromosome 23 at 43 cM close to QTL, about 10 kb in size, including 5 exons coding for 199 amino acids and 4 introns (Mahajan et al, 2012;Chauhan, 2017, andSamuel et al, 2023). Using polymerase chain reaction and the Rstriction Fragments Length Polymorphism technique (PCR-RFLP), these polymorphic structures of the PRL gene have been studied by many researchers, who confirmed significant associations between PRL polymorphic variants and milk production traits in dairy cattle (He et al, 2006;Hu et al, 2009;Mehmannavaz et al, 2009;Alfonso et al, 2012;César et al, 2012;Thuy et al, 2018, andIlie et al, 2023).…”
