[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1683236, member: 20580"] Run reports on other defects too and going to get a lot too. MSUD hit a lot of heavily used bloodlines as well and IE and HY have been around a long time too. There still is a lot of cattle out there that are descendants of animals that are known carriers for IE HY and MSUD that have not been DNA tested too that are going to get hit with the P designations I'm sure. The MD carriers come mostly from anything with Hometown 10Y and his flushmate Homegrown 8Y along with their sire Wonder who were all heavily used bulls then factor in there are multiple sons out there by those bulls who were being used AI too that also are MDC so yeah that defect really got spread around a lot before the source was known. It appears the defect started as a mutation with the Wonder bull as both his parents tested MDF. As far as I am aware MD is not a defect in any other registered breeds so the chances it is not a mutation and came from another breeds genetics as a cross is highly unlikely. [/QUOTE]
