Differences between the risk groups in mean estimated breeding values for several traits. The 15656 Holstein cows that were genotyped for the 5 SNPs in bovine CD209, SLC11A1, SP110, and TLR2 genes in 2016 or 2017 were assigned to a LOWIN, LATIN, PATIN or AVERIN risk of PTB progression. A linear model was used to test if the 2019 EBVs of the four risk groups differed. The EBV of the following traits were included in the analysis; type genetic index (A), combined genetic index (B), milk yield (C), fat yield (D), protein yield (E), and the longevity score(F). The blue bar represents the PATIN risk group, the red bar corresponds to the LATIN risk group, and the LOWIN and AVERIN groups are represented with green and purple bars, respectively. The variability of the mean values is represented by the standard error. Statistically significant differences are represented with an asterisk.
