Molecular genetics based on marker assisted selection is a powerful tool for the genetic improvement of animal selection and production. Genetic markers and their association with traits of economic interest can be used to achieve the genetic improvement of selection and production in domestic animals. Molecular genetics techniques allow direct genotyping of milk proteins using DNA from blood or semen samples, regardless of age or sex of animals. Accurate genotyping of k-casein and beta-lactoglobulin have economic significance because their genetic variants have effects on milk production traits including milk and protein yield, fat and protein percentage and milking speed. The aim of this work was application of fast molecular genetics methods for accurate genotyping of bovine k-kasein and beta-lactoglobulin variants.
