FASN gene polymorphism in indigenous cattle breeds of Turkey.
The aim of this study was to determine the variants of the thioesterase (TE) beta-ketoacyl reductase (KR) domains of the Fatty Acid Synthase (FASN) gene, in the East Anatolian Red (EAR) and South Anatolian Red (SAR) cattle breeds. It has been suggested that the FASN gene is effective on fatty acid composition of meat in cattle. In this study, the genotype and allele frequencies of g.17924 A>G, ...
متن کاملPolymorphism studies of Prolactin Receptor (PRLR) gene in Indigenous Grey Cattle breeds of India
Alterations in candidate genes by way of substitutions, insertions, or deletions at restriction enzyme cleavage sites may produce changes in the resulting length of DNA fragments called restriction fragment length polymorphisms, which may serve as genetic markers if they are linked to quantitative trait loci. Recently, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have gained high popularity as marker...
متن کاملDGAT1 K232A polymorphism in Brazilian cattle breeds.
Recent reports identified DGAT1 (EC 2.3.1.20) harboring a lysine to alanine substitution (K232A) as a candidate gene with a strong effect on milk production traits. Our objective was to estimate the frequency of the DGAT1 K232A polymorphism in the main Zebu and Taurine breeds in Brazil as well as in Zebu x Taurine crossbreds as a potential QTL for marker-assisted selection. Samples of 331 anima...
متن کاملGenetic Diversity and Phylogenetic Relationship between Indigenous Cattle Breeds
Zebu breeds of cattle from southern part of India are well known for their adaptability to extreme climatic conditions, draught efficiency, disease resistance and poor nutritional environment. Selection of appropriate populations for conservation of such genetic resources is needed in view of preventing rapid erosion of animal genetic resources. Estimation of genetic diversity is essential to d...
متن کاملLack of Association between Somatotropin Receptor Gene Polymorphism and Birth Weight of Iranian Indigenous Sistani Cattle
The objective of the present study was to determine polymorphism within the promoter region of somatotropin receptor genes in indigenous Sistani cattle (Bos indicus) and associations between this polymorphism and breeding value of birth weight. The pedigree structure was included by considering 1173 animals with 600 progeny birth weight data obtained from a Zhark breeding station in Sistan and ...
