Genes, Vol. 15, Pages 250: The Identification of Goat KCNJ15 Gene Copy Number Variation and Its Association with Growth Traits
Conclusions: We confirmed that the CNV in the KCNJ15 gene significantly influences the growth characteristics of four distinct goat breeds. The correlation between KCNJ15 gene CNVs and goat growth traits offers valuable insights to breeders, enabling them to employ precise and efficient breeding methods that enhance livestock welfare, productivity, and overall economic benefits in the industry.
