Abstract:

Single nucleotide polymorphisms are the most commonly observed genetic variation among particular population, generally known as SNPs (pronounced “snips”). The main objective of the current research was recognition of SNP C-2161G in promoter region of prolactin gene in ‘N’ strain of White Leghorn and its interrelation with production traits. A total of 200 birds of ‘N’ strain of White Leghorn were randomly selected from All India Co-ordinated Research Project (AICRP) on Poultry Improvement, Mannuthy, Thrissur, Kerala. Blood samples were collected from the randomly selected birds and isolation of genomic DNA was done using DNA isolation kit. PCR and PCR-RFLP analysis was accomplished to detect a SNP at C-2161G site in promoter region of prolactin gene. The genotypes are represented as CC, CG and GG for C-2161G. All the 200 birds were noticed with same genotype (CC) and production performance.
