[摘要]：Ten evolutionary conservative sequences with high identity level to homological sequences in other mammal species were revealed in 5'-flanking region of casein's genes cluster. Five novel SNPs located inside of the evolutionary conservative regions were identified. The binding sites were revealed to be present in one allelic variant of four detected SNPs. So these SNPs were considered as rSNPs. Significant differences of allelic frequencies were revealed between beef cow's group and dairy cow's group in two rSNPs (NCE4, NCE7, p<0.001). Different alleles of those two rSNPs were shown to be associated with some milk performance traits in Black-and-White Holstein dairy cows. Significant difference of protein percentage has been found between cows with GIG and A/A genotypes (P<0.05) and A/G and A/A genotypes (P<0.05) for NCE4 polymorphism. The groups of animals with genotypes G/G and A/G for NCE7 polymorphism were significantly different in milk yield at the first lactation (kg) (P<0.01), milk fat yield (kg) (P<0.05) and milk protein yield (kg) (P<0.01). For the last trait the difference was significant also between cows with genotypes G/G and A/A for rSNP NCE7 (P<0.05). (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
