Abstract excerpt
Growth hormone (GH) is a key determinant of various productive traits in sheep; however, the genetic diversity of GH across breeds and the structural and functional consequences of breed-specific SNPs remain largely unexplored. Based on multiple sequence alignments of the GH sequences, 14 models were suggested, and 11 of them were validated using phylogenetic analysis. Most of the SNPs exhibited various...
