Correlation analysis between polymorphism of leptin and IGFI genes and body measurements in Barki and Farafra sheep
Abstract Background Growth performance, which can be evaluated using various body measurements, is crucial for providing red meat for human consumption. This study aims to improve the growth performance of sheep by identifying the different genotypes of leptin and IGFI genes associated with higher b...
