Abstract excerpt
This study was designed to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of some candidate genes related to lipid metabolism and their association with carcass fat in male crossbred lambs. Hence, 96 of almost 11-month-old Booroola Merino-Afshari crossbred lambs (first-generation backcross) were used by considering their phenotypic carcass traits. Then, DNA was extracted and DNA targets were amplified using...
