Abstract excerpt
Growth differentiation factor (GDF) 9 gene is involved in regulating reproductive traits in animals, but little is known about the promoter, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), transcription factor binding sites, and regulating mechanism of GDF9 gene. In this study, the SNPs in the GDF9 promoter region were explored and their transcription mechanisms in regulating GDF9 expression were analyzed. Ear tissues of...
