“…Studies conducted on different cattle types and buffaloes have reported that GH-AluI gene polymorphisms affect meat yield, pre-slaughter body weight, carcass meat weight, slaughter weight and growth data (Pereira et al, 2005;Curi et al, 2006;Sedykh et al, 2020;El-Komy et al, 2021) Parallel to our research, polymorphic association studies analyzing somatotropic axis genes together have generally associated these genes with growth and reproduction data but not with milk yield, especially GH/AluI and IGFI/SnaBI (Balogh et al, 2008;Ulyanov et al, 2021). The two different META analysis studies show that the common L allele was dominant and no significant difference was found in the results of the meta-analysis and subgroup analysis for the milk yields in the LL, LV, and VV genotypes Akcay et al, 2020;Bangar et al, 2021). The results of the Z. SÖNMEZ, S. KOPUZLU, M. ÖZDEMIR meta-analysis on bGH/AluI and IGFI/SnaBI genetic variations in cattle confirm the results of our study.…”
