Shortening of the telomere length during the transition period of dairy cows in relation to biological stress
Abstract Telomere length (TL) is a recognized biomarker for ageing in multiple species. In dairy cattle, the transition period is considered a very stressful period. We hypothesized that TL shortens during this period. Holstein cows (n = 61) were followed during the transition period. Blood and milk...
