Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of molecular genetics, in particular to a molecular marker related to chicken reproductive performance and its application in breeding. Background technique
[0002] The main biological functions of bone morphogenetic protein receptor IB (BMPR-IB) gene include follicle growth and development, ovulation, bone tissue development, and organismal embryonic development. The study found that a single base mutation at the A746G (FecB) position of the BMPR-IB gene leads to multiple fecundity traits in sheep, and has been confirmed in multiple sheep breeds. Wang Shengbao's research shows that the litter size of individuals with A746G mutation BB genotype in Small-tailed Han sheep is significantly higher than that of the other two genotypes (P<0.01), and the litter size of heterozygous individuals in Sahan F1 generation is significantly higher than that of ++ type individuals (P<0.05). Yan Yadong's research shows that t...
