	abstract = {Studies in New Zealand have shown that bulk milk collected from groups  
of {\textperiodcentered}-lactoglobulin AA phenotype cows has a different composition to bulk  
milk collected from groups of {\th}-lactoglobulin BB phenotype cows (Hill, 1993).   
Although all cows used in this study were different to those used by Hill  
(1993), differences in composition were similar with the {\textperiodcentered}-lactoglobulin AA  
phenotype cow group producing milk which contained less casein, fat and total  
solids than {\textperiodcentered}-lactoglobulin BB phenotype cow group.  No significant  
differences was observed in the total protein, lactose or ash content in the milk  
of the two phenotype groups.  In comparison with the {\th}-lactoglobulin AA and  
BB phenotype bulk milks, large variations in composition were observed in the  
milk from individual cows.  As all cows were fed on identical pasture and  
subjected to identical farm management practices these results indicate that in  
addition to {\th}-lactoglobulin phenotype other genetic factors can have a  
significant influence on the composition of milk. },
