Abstract excerpt
2 SNPs were discovered in our previous genome-wide association study (GWAS): s58995.1 (rs420767326 A>G) in MEF2B gene and OAR3_115712045.1 (rs401775061 A>C) in TRHDE gene, which were significantly associated with post-weaning gain in sheep. Herein, we performed a replication experiment to investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MEF2B and TRHDE gene exons, the 5'untranslated regions (within...
