Abstract

Data from the joint Nordic breeding value prediction for Danishand Swedish Holstein grandsire families were used to locatequantitative trait loci (QTL) for female fertility traits inDanish and Swedish Holstein cattle. Up to 36 Holstein grandsireswith over 2,000 sons were genotyped for 416 microsatellite markers.Single trait breeding values were used for 12 traits relatingto female fertility and female reproductive disorders. Datawere analyzed by least squares regression analysis within andacross families. Twenty-six QTL were detected on 17 differentchromosomes. The best evidence was found for QTL segregatingon Bos taurus chromosome (BTA)1, BTA7, BTA10, and BTA26. Oneach of these chromosomes, several QTL were detected affectingmore than one of the fertility traits investigated in this study.Evidence for segregation of additional QTL on BTA2, BTA9, andBTA24 was found
