Proteomic signatures of cervical mucus associated with fertility in Bali heifers (Bos javanicus): Implications for biomarker-based selection in artificial insemination programs
This study offers the first proteomic evidence connecting CM composition to fertility-related traits in Bali heifers. NT5E, CFI, and HP stand out as promising biomarkers for fertility screening, providing a molecular framework to improve AI efficiency and selection strategies in indigenous cattle.
