Abstract excerpt
Retinoic X receptor-gamma (RXRG) gene was studied as a candidate gene for the twinning trait of bovine. A new SNP A1941G was detected by sequencing at 3'UTR. Different genotypes were determined in Luxi monotocous cows, Luxi twinning cows, Chinese Simmental cows, Angus cows and Simmental x Mongolia cows by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). The value of polymorphism information content indicated that...
