[ 1 ] - Association of Exon 4 Region of Gpr54 Gene Polymorphisms with Litter Size Trait in Iranian Sanjabi and Ghezel Sheep Breeds by PCR –SSCP

G-protein-coupled receptor (GPR54) is one of the known gene affecting fecundity. This gene  affects  the ovulation rate and litter size performance. A total of 160 animals including Sanjabi (n=100) and Ghezel (n=60) were used to identify polymorphisms of GPR54 gene and  their influence on litter size. Genomic DNA was extracted by commercial DNA kit. The genotypic patterns were detected using th...

[ 2 ] - Detection of Genetic Differences between Holstein and Iranian North-West Indigenous Hybrid Cattles using Genomic Data

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Selection to increase the frequency of new mutations useful only in some subpopulations leaves markers at the genome level. Most of these regions are related to genes and QTLs controlling significant economic traits. Material and Methods: In order to detection of genetic differences between Iranian northwestern crossbred and Holstein cattle breed,...
