Abstract excerpt
The polymorphisms of the growth hormone (GH) gene were analyzed in 686 individuals from four goat populations, Three haplotypes (A, B and C) and three observed genotypes (AA, AB and AC) were detected at the P2 locus, and three haplotypes (E, F and G) and three observed genotypes (EE, EF and EG) were also detected at the P4 locus. In addition, five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)-A112G, C142T (Gly>Ser),...
