Abstract excerpt
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is one of the most potent orexigenic factors which can produce diverse effects on behaviour and other physiological functions and is highly conserved in evolution. The present study was aimed to identify and associate SNPs in the 5' UTR and exon2 region of the NPY gene with reproduction and production traits in Kankrej cattle of Indian origin. Three mutations in the 5'-UTR region and one...
