Abstract excerpt
In this study, Xinong Saanen (SN) and Guanzhong (GZ) dairy goat breeds were used to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 5'-flanking region of the KITLG gene by DNA sequencing and primer-introduced restriction analysis-polymerase chain reaction. Two novel SNPs (g.13090G>T and g.13664C>A) were identified (GenBank Accession no. KM658964). Furthermore, g.13090G>T and g.13664C>A loci were closely...
