New polymorphism in the 5′ flanking region of IGF-1 gene and its association with wool traits in Egyptian Barki sheep

Insulin-like growth factor-1 gene (IGF-1) is considered as a major candidate gene for the economic traits of animal production. Polymorphism of 5′ flanking region of IGF-1 gene in Barki sheep (n = 91) and its association with wool traits were studied using the polymerase chain reaction coupled with ...
