Mutual markers for agitated behaviour and milk production showed competitive genotype effects. Gene expression profiles of the adrenal cortex revealed differentially expressed genes between cows with distinct temperament types. “Fearful/neophobic-alert” cows could be clearly discriminated from others by transcripts involved in the physiological stress response. Moreover, cows that were more fearful had lower milk yields in comparison to the others.<eng> submitted by: M.Sc.
