The aim of this study was to investigate associations between genotypes of UCP2 and UCP3 genes, milk, and reproduction traits in dairy cattle. The study included two herds: Jersey cows and Polish Holstein-Friesian (Red and White strain) cows. All cows were genotyped using the PCR-RFLP method and allele frequencies were determined. Statistical analysis showed a significant association between polymorphism in the UCP3 gene and the milk yield and fat content of milk (P ≤ 0.05, P ≤ 0.01) and between the UCP2 gene and the calving interval (P ≤ 0.05). Information contained in this study may be useful in further analysis to define the role of analysed genes in relation to functional traits in dairy cattle, nevertheless, the obtained results should be verified by conducting research on a larger group of animals and various cattle breeds.
