Polymorphism of the <i>MTNR1A</i> Melatonin Receptor Gene in Goat Breeds of Northern Italy

Polymorphism of the <i>MTNR1A</i> Melatonin Receptor Gene in Goat Breeds of Northern Italy

Melatonin receptor MT1, encoded by the <i>MTNR1A</i> gene, is the main one involved in the seasonal regulation of reproductive activity. A correlation between this gene polymorphism and reproductive performance has been demonstrated in sheep. To date, no data about <i>MTNR1A</i&...
