Ethiopia lies within the earliest geographic center for the dispersal of livestock into the
African continent. It therefore comprises a unique repository of livestock genetic diversity in …

Polymorphism analysis of the Kisspeptin (KISS1) gene and its association with litter size
were conducted in two (Gondar and Woyto Guji) Ethiopian indigenous goat populations …

Understanding the genetic information of related genes is helpful for the selection and
breeding course through marker assisted selection. The aim of the current study was to …

KiSS1 is considered to be a key mediator of molecular mechanism of reproduction (puberty
and prolificacy) in mammals. Kisspeptins are a family of structurally related peptides …

The aim of the current research was to analyze the population structure and expression of
KISS1 gene associated with reproductive traits through Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) …

Genetic information especially of the Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) which affect different
performance traits is considered one of the most effective tools in the breeding programs of …

Kisspeptin is a protein encoded by the KISS1 gene which behaves as a key role by
stimulating gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) neuron activity directly in the …

Kisspeptin gene (Kiss1) has a significant role in reproductive processes in mammals.
However, only little information is available about the association of Kiss1 gene with litter …

Three pairs of primers were designed to clone the goat KiSS-1 and scan polymorphisms and
four pairs to detect polymorphisms in sexual precocious and sexual late-maturing goat …

The objective of this study was to assess the association of KiSS1 gene polymorphism with
reproductive traits in Kaligesing goat. Genotypes of 48 ewes aged three years old were …
