Dataset of TMEM154 genotype and serological maedi-visna status of Sicilian ovine breeds.xlsx

The present dataset reports the results to investigate the association of p.Glu35Lys (E35K) polymorphism of the transmembrane protein 154 (TMEM154) gene with the serological MV status of tested animals. In particular, 422 from 14 flocks across six provinces (Agrigento, Enna, Caltanissetta, Catania, Palermo, Trapani) of Sicily (South Italy) were serologically tested and genotyped for the TMEM154 E35K polymorphism using sequencing and TaqMan allelic discrimination methods.
