Abstract
This review addresses the concept of genetic load from the point of view of molecular genetics, development and efforts in selective breeding. As typical examples, the assessment of animals in the Holstein breed and its high-blooded crossbreeds is considered for mutations that cause three inherited diseases: bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (CD18 locus), complex vertebral malformation (SLC35A3 locus), and brachyspina (FANCI locus). The reasons for their occurrence and accumulation in the breeding herds of the black-pied genealogical root are discussed. These include an intense artificial-selection of bulls and cows in highly productive herds and the intensive sale (within and between countries) of breeding material (animals, semen, embryos) from a small population of sires from countries with a high level of dairy-cattle breeding development. There is a founder effect when the source of mutant-allele spread is a prominent sire. For example, the greatest contribution to the spread of mutant alleles CD18G, SLC35A3T and FANCIBY was made by the descendants of three closely related bulls. A genogeographic generalization of the mutation occurrence in the world and Russia is provided for these hereditary-disease loci and, includes a total of 31 countries where these mutations were detected. The genetic-load classification for these and other mutations is given. The mutations are inherited both recessively (CD18G, SLC35A3T, FANCIBY) and codominantly (CSN3A, CSN3C, CSN3E, CSN2A1, CSN2B). Genetic load is classified into the following types: mutational, segregation, substitutional, and immigration. For each of these, examples are given that explain their occurrence. Overall, it can be concluded that the phenomenon of genetic load in industrial herds of dairy cattle requires special attention when creating healthy livestock and obtaining high-quality dairy products.
