Association of selected polymorphic sites in the IGF1R gene with body weight and conformation of Hereford cattle

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between selected polymorphic sites located in various fragments of the IGF1R gene and the growth and development of Hereford cattle. Variation in the gene was identified using the PCR-RFLP and ACRS-PCR methods. The herd showed no variation at t...
