Bovine milk is a highly regarded food source. Still, some milk fatty acids may have unfavourable health effects and can influence manufacturing properties of dairy products. Individual milk fatty acids show moderate heritabilities, and better knowledge of the underlying genes may be used to speed up the genetic progress of the traits and provide dairy products of higher quality and nutritional value. In this thesis, mutations underpinning variation in bovine milk fat composition in Norwegian Red cattle was explored, with emphasis on fatty acids produces de novo in the mammary gland, and the two dominant acids in bovine milk, palmitic (C16:0) and oleic acid (C18:1cis9). Paper I established the calibration equations to predict the fatty acid...
