Abstract excerpt
Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) belongs to the member of the insulin-like growth factors family, which plays key roles in animal growth, differentiation and proliferation, as well as reproduction and the regulation of ovarian follicle development. However, little is known about the goose IGF2 gene. In this study, a 1879bp fragment that covered the complete coding region (CDS) of goose IGF2 cDNA was identified...
