Abstract excerpt

Attainment of puberty is a key developmental event influenced by genetic and environmental factors. In examining age at attainment of puberty, we observed closely related rams from the Davisdale line whose daughters differed in age at which they attained puberty. A candidate gene approach was used to identify mutations that may underlie these observed differences. Four rams with divergent phenotypes for their...
