Abstract excerpt
Kisspeptin gene (Kiss1) has a significant role in reproductive processes in mammals. However, only little information is available about the association of Kiss1 gene with litter size in Indian goat breeds. Thus, blood samples from 285 randomly selected animals were collected for DNA isolation and SNP profiling. The PCR product of 242 bp size harboring g.2540C>T mutation of Kiss1 gene was digested with the...
