Polymorphism of growth hormone (GH) gene and its association with performance and body conformation of Harnali sheep.

Abstract excerpt

The present study was carried out to study the polymorphism in the GH gene and its association with various performance and body conformation traits, viz., birth weight (B-WT), weaning weight (W-WT), six-month body weight (6 M-WT), one-year body weight (Y-WT), annual greasy fleece weight (AGFW), body length (BL), body height (BH), heart girth (HG) and paunch girth (PG) in 138 Harnali sheep. PCR-RFLP was performed...
