Genes encoding the alpha and beta chains of follicle-stimulating hormone are not sites for the Booroola (FecB) mutation in sheep.

Journal of reproduction and fertility - 1 Aug 1992

Abstract excerpt

Bovine cDNA probes for the beta-subunit of follicle-stimulating hormone beta (FSH beta) and the alpha-subunit of the glycoprotein hormones identify genetic variation (polymorphic restriction fragments) near these genes in sheep. The inheritance of the polymorphic restriction fragments was studied...
