Abstract
Methods of predicting the phenotype of a trait in a bovine subject are provided. The methods include obtaining information about polynucleotide sequences specifically regarding the identity of the nucleotides present at one or more identified single nucleotide polymorphisms and using this information to make predictions regarding the trait in the subject. Kits for and methods of determining the nucleotide present in a bovine subject at a position in which a single nucleotide polymorphism is correlated with a trait are also provided.
