Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) of GDF9 Gene in Bahmaei and Lak Ghashghaei Sheep Breeds and Its Association with Litter Size
Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) belong to the superfamily of transforming growth factor β that is highly expressed in growing ovarian follicles of oocyte, and it has been strongly related to fecundity traits in sheep. Therefore, the GDF9 gene could serve as a genetic marker for improvement of reproductive performance in sheep. Therefore, the aim of this study was to invest...
متن کاملNovel Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in Two Oogenesis Specific Genes (BMP15, GDF9) and Their Association with Litter Size in Markhoz Goat (Iranian Angora)
BMP15 and GDF9 are two oogenesis specific genes play a pivotal role in female fertility in mammals and potential for improvement of prolificacy in marker-assisted selection. The aim of present research was to investigate the variation and association between BMP15 and GDF9 polymorphism and litter size in Markhoz goats. The sequence variability of the different amplified fragments utilized for g...
متن کاملAssociation of Candidate Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Related to Candidate Genes in Patients With Schizophrenia
Introduction: Schizophrenia is a chronic heterogenic neurodevelopment disorder. Many genes interfere in the development of SCZ. All four genes, NrCAM, PRODH, ANK3, and ANKK1, which were evaluated in this study, were previously reported to be associated with Schizophrenia. The NrCAM contributes to creating cognitive deficiencies through the CAM’s signaling pathway. PRODH plays a vital role in cr...
متن کاملNovel single nucleotide polymorphisms of GnRHR gene and their association with litter size in goats
In the present study, the polymorphisms of gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHR) gene were analysed as a genetic marker candidate for litter size in 720 individuals from Shaanan goats (SG) and Boer goats (BG). Two alleles (A and C), two observed genotypes (AA and AC), and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected. The frequencies of alleles A and C in two goat breeds were 0...
متن کاملAssociation of IGF-I Gene Polymorphisms with Carcass Traits in Iranian Mehraban Sheep Using SSCP Analysis
Molecular genetics selection on individual genes is a promising method to genetically improve economically important traits in livestock. The insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene may play important roles in growth of multiple tissues, including muscle cells, cartilage and bone. The objectives of the present study were the estimate the haplotype frequencies of the IGF-I gene polymorphisms i...
