RFLP Markers and their relationship with a QTL in sheep

Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP's) were observed in EcoRI-, HindJIIand TaqI- digested Thai Longtail sheep genomic DNA probed with ovine FSH eDNA. RFLP was also detected in EcoRI-digested DNA ofthe same sheep breed with ovme thymus genomic DNA. No polymorphism was found in fol...

Description
Summary:Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP's) were observed in EcoRI-, HindJIIand TaqI- digested Thai Longtail sheep genomic DNA probed with ovine FSH eDNA. RFLP was also detected in EcoRI-digested DNA ofthe same sheep breed with ovme thymus genomic DNA. No polymorphism was found in follistatin and ovine growth hormone (OGH) loci of the same sheep breed. When an analysis of variance between genotypes afthe simulated backcross data on body weight at 9 months was done, effect ofFSH genotypes s,howed significantly different effects on body weight but no such differing effect ofgenotypes of the thymus locus on body weight was observed.
