Abstract excerpt
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) is a multifunctional cell proliferation regulator that plays a critical role in regulating animal growth and development. In this study, the expression level of IGF1 gene in different tissues of Dezhou donkey in different periods was investigated by RT-qPCR. Meanwhile, two mutation sites were identified within the IGF1 gene and its effect on body size traits of Dezhou donkey...
