Genetic polymorphisms of osteopontin (OPN), prolactin (PRL) and pituitary-specific transcript factor-1 (PIT-1) in South Anatolian and East Anatolian Red cattle

Prolactin-RsaI gene polymorphism in East Anatolian Red cattle in Turkey

“…PRL-RsaI (-) allele (gene) frequency in previous studies on EAR cattle had the greatest frequency and the population was in H-W equilibrium (P >0.05) (Oztabak et al, 2008;Akyuz & Cinar, 2012;Ozkan Unal et al, 2015). These results were similar to those of the present study.…”

Identification of a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism at Hinf-1 Enzyme Restriction Site of Pit-1 Gene on Indonesian Bali Cattle Population

“…Other constraints are random matting, the absence of mutation, the absence of selection as well as the absence of migration. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium status was also found in population of Zebu (Mukesh et al, 2008), red Anatolian (Oztabak et al, 2008), Qinchuan (Zhang et al, 2009), Hanwoo (Han et al, 2010) and Holstein Turkey (Ozdemer, 2012) cattle.…”

“…Besides, the study of this gene was also intensively conducted in native cattle breeds in some countries, including Iranian cattle (Javanmard et al, 2005), Southern Anatolian red cattle (Oztabak et al, 2008), Hanwoo cattle (Han et al, 2010;Seong et al, 2011), Turkey cattle (Ozdemir, 2012), Qinchuan cattle (Zhang et al, 2009) and Piemontese cattle (Ribeca et al, 2014). Even more, Pit-1 gene was also identified in non-cattle species, including chicken (Nie et al, 2008), sheep (Bastos et al, 2006) and buffalo (Javanmard et al, 2005;Misrianti et al, 2010).…”

The Association of Bovine Osteopontin (OPN) Gene with Milk Production Traits in Iranian Holstein Bulls

“…In both breeds, frequency of T allele was found higher than C alleles. They showed that the frequency of allele C in South Anatolian Red was higher than that was found in East Anatolian Red cattle (24). Allele C was associated with milk protein percentage (12).…”
