Abstract excerpt

The effect of MTNR1A gene polymorphisms on the fertility rate after AI in Sarda sheep was evaluated in 600 lactating adult ewes. Genomic DNA was subjected to amplification of the MTNR1A gene exon II. Amplicons were digested with restriction endonuclease MnlI. Ten samples from each genotype were sequenced. A polymorphism was detected (A612G) and ewes were determined to be +/+, +/- or -/- for the allele. Allelic...
