Growth hormone (GH) is the most important hormone that controls somatic cell growth and the syntheses of protein, fat, and carbohydrates. This study was to identify gene polymorphism of GH-1 using PCR- single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) technique and its association with growth traits including condition factor (CF), body weight (BW) and total length (TL) in common carp (Cyprinus ca...

Beef production is an important development area in animal breeding with meat quality being determined by both paratypic and genetic factors. In this regard evaluating genetic material for the presence of desirable allele combinations of genes associated with growth and development indicators, as well as meat qualities of animals have a certain scientific and practical significance. The aim of ...

the aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between growth hormone gh/alui and growth hormone receptor ghr/alui polymorphisms with milk yield and reproductive performances in holstein dairy cows in iran. blood samples of 150 holstein cows were collected and their genomic dna was extracted using gene-fanavaran dna extracting kit. fragments of the 428 bp of exon 5 growth ho...

The research was conducted to study the characteristics of growth, carcass production and growth hormone gene polymorphisms in various male sentul chickens. using experimental methods with a completely randomized design. material 100 day old chickens Sentul. treatment fixed factor, namely variation color feathers Sentul consisting of: “Abu” Sentul, “Emas” “Geni” “Debu” “Batu” Sentul.. Each unit...

We have isolated and sequenced a clone from a rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) genomic library that carries a gene encoding a fish growth hormone (GH). This gene spans a region of approximately equal to 4 kilobases, nearly twice that of mammalian GH genes. The trout GH gene is comprised of six exons, in contrast with five exons in mammals. The additional intron in the fish gene interrupts transl...

In sheep, scrapie susceptibility is so strongly associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene encoding the prion protein (PrP) that this linkage constitutes the basis for selective breeding strategies directed toward controlling the disease. For goats, in contrast, the association between scrapie susceptibility/resistance and variations in the PrP gene is far weaker, with o...

the aim of this study was to examine the anti-inflammatory effects of co-administration of growthhormone-releasing peptide-2 (ghrp-2) and growth hormone (gh) on tumor necrosis factor-α (tnf-α),interleukin-6 (il-6) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (inos) gene expression induced by lps in the mousebrain. thirty-five male nmri mice (25±5 g) were injected through the mouse tail vein with saline,...

Growth hormone (GH) has an effect on a broad variety of physiological parameters such as lactation, reproduction, growth and metabolism. Thus, the aim of this study was to detect GH gene polymorphism and its association with breeding values of production and reproduction traits in Raini Cashmere goat. Breeding values were estimated using records on 26731 Raini Cashmere goats. To study GH gene p...
