RFamide-related peptides' gene expression, polymorphism, and their association with reproductive traits in chickens

RFamide-related peptides' gene expression, polymorphism, and their association with reproductive traits in chickens

RFamide-related peptides (RFRP) are synthesized by the hypothalamus and have a regulatory role in gonad development. The goal of this study was to investigate the association between SNP of the RFRP gene and the reproductive traits and hormone levels of Zhenning yellow chickens. The mRNA expression...
