aGenBank accession numbers for sequences from control animals on MSCP27 with the relavant diplotype (where available).

bSheep born 1995 to 2007. Allele or genotype frequencies that add up to 0.999 or 1.001 are the result of rounding errors.

cNo minor alleles detected

dSheep with 237P allele are descendents of a single composite ram

eNot present in U.S. populations surveyed. GenBank accession number correspends to Billinis et al. 2004. J. Gen. Virol. 85, 547-554

fNot available
