Abstract excerpt
The main objective of this study was to investigate the polymorphism of GDF9 and BMPR1B genes and their relationship with litter size in Markhoz goats. The polymorphism of GDF9 and BMPR1B genes as well-documented genes regarding fecundity in sheep and goat was investigated using RFLP-PCR and a tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-PCR (T-ARMS-PCR) in Markhoz goats. The 164 blood samples were...
