Sodium butyrate and monensin supplementation to postweaning heifer diets

The SLICK haplotype, originally identified in Senepol cattle, has been introduced into Holsteins. Inheritance of the SLICK1 allele of the prolactin receptor gene improves thermotolerance of lactating Holstein cows under humid heat stress conditions. Dr. Anna Denicol of the University of California-Davis, along with her research group, recently published a study on whether pre- and postweaning Holstein heifers carrying the SLICK1 allele would show physiological responses indicative of higher tolerance to heat stress in high- and low-humidity climates. In this video, Dr. Phil Cardoso talks with Dr. Denicol about her work.
