Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Improving meat quality and production traits in indigenous livestock is crucial for food security and sustainable agriculture. This study investigated polymorphisms in the DGAT1 and PPARGC1B genes and their associations with growth and fat-tail traits in Kurdi sheep. METHODS: Following DNA isolation using the modified salting-out method, a total of 120 Kurdi sheep were genotyped for DGAT1 and PPARGC1B...
