Abstract excerpt
We analyzed 20 exons, with their intron-exon boundaries, of the bovine Flt-1 gene, using a strategy combining PCR amplification and single-strand conformational polymorphism analysis (PCR-SSCP), followed by nucleotide sequence analysis, in 675 cattle. We then looked for associations between polymorphisms and growth traits. Twelve novel SNPs (ss#184956516, ss#184956517, ss#184956518, ss#184956519, ss#251343993,...
