Abstract excerpt

Bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) gene and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) gene which control the fecundity of Belclare and Cambridge ewes were studied as candidate genes on the prolificacy of Small Tail Han sheep. Single nucleotide polymorphism of GDF9 gene and BMP15 gene was detected in both high fecundity sheep breeds (Small Tail Han sheep and Hu sheep) and low fecundity sheep breeds (Dorset sheep,...
