Abstract excerpt
The objective of this work was to characterize genetically some buffalo herds raised in Varzea (VA) and Terra-Firme (upland) (TF) ecosystems through polymorphism of the intron 2 of the leptin gene ( LEP-1620). Two hundred seventy-nine animals from four distinct populations were evaluated using the PCR-RFLP method for LEP-1620 polymorphism (SNP) of the leptin gene with restriction enzyme BsaAI. The animal samples...
