Breeding for higher prolificacy may improve lamb production efficiency in semi-intensive and
intensive sheep-production systems. Crossbreeding of native breeds with exotic prolific …

The BMPRIB gene is one of the main genes that can be used as a molecular genetic marker
for the early selection of highly productive ewes. It is well-documented that the p. Q249R (g …

Аннотация Большинство пород овец являются малоплодными, что наряду с другими
причинами приводит к низкой рентабельности отрасли. В интенсивных системах …

The present study was conducted to identify the polymorphism of two major fecundity genes,
viz. FecB and FecG, in indigenous sheep of Meghalaya and to assess phylogenetic …

Farm profitability is heavily influenced by reproductive capacity. Fertility, prolificacy, and
fecundity are all indicators of reproductive efficiency. In sheep with high economic value …

Abstract The BMPR-1B/FecB or Booroola gene is the first major fecundity gene identified in
sheep. The present investigation was carried out to study polymorphism by PCR-RFLP of …

The purpose of this investigation was to determine genetic diversity of ovine BMPR-1B/FecB
gene in 90 ewes from three Bulgarian sheep breeds with different productive directions–30 …

Booroola (FecB) gene is also known as Bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 1B
(BMPR1B) gene, expressed in oocytes and granulosa cells. BMPR1B gene has been …

Fecundity gene such as FecX, govern fertility and litter size in sheep. Selection of animals
with the help of molecular markers through identification of polymorphism of fecundity genes …

The purpose of the present work was to identify allelic variants of ovine FecB gene in three
fine fleece sheep breeds in Bulgaria–Askanian, Caucasian and Karnobat Merino. Blood …
