Short summary
In this study, polymorphisms in 15 exon regions of the discoidin domain receptor tyrosine kinase 1 (DDR1) gene were investigated in order to determine its effects on milk yield in cattle. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis, sequence analysis and statistical analyses of the samples were performed. It was found that two of the polymorphic regions had an effect on milk yield.
