Analysis of the 3' end regions of the GDF9 and BMPR1B genes in Blackbelly sheep from Yucatán, Mexico

The FecB mutation in the BMPR1B gene and the G6, G7 and G8 mutations in the GDF9 gene have been documented in Booroola Merino sheep breeds. These mutations have all been identified in several ovine breeds, such as Belclare, Cambridge. Blackbelly hairy sheep breed, which is well adapted to tropical c...

The results of this study indicate the absence of mutations in these genes from the Blackbelly breed.
