Bovine leukocyte antigen, class II, DO beta (BoLA-DOB) is related to antigen presentation, which can triggered by multicul factors. And the condition of immune function determines how much cattle load to heat stress. To evaluate the relationship between heat-resistance and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in BoLA-DOB gene, our study has taken further analysis in Chinese indigenous cattle for the first time. A missense single nucleotide polymorphism (rs464874590) was detected in BoLA-DOB gene. We directly sequenced rs464874590 (NM_001013600.1 g.7122762 A > G) in BoLA-DOB gene of 522 individuals of 26 cattle breeds. The frequency of allele G gradually decreases from south to north with distinct climatic distribution characteristics. Further association analysis was carried out between different genotypes and environmental parameters, including annual mean temperature (T), relative humidity (RH), and temperature-humidity index (THI). The result showed that three genotypes were significantly correlated with T, H, and THI (P < 0.01), indicating that GG genotype was distributed in areas with hot and moist conditions. Therefore, our results suggested that the rs464874590 could be applied as a genetic marker to detect the heat-resistance of Chinese indigenous cattle.
