The effect of the multiple genotypes of Myostatin gene on reproductive characteristics of the Iraqi brown local chickens by Hanan Kareem Noor Al-Musawi, Majid Mohsen Salman Al-Ameri

“…Hens were selected based on the characteristic of high egg production rate which was more than 60%, the study aims to determine the multiple genetic features of the Myostatin gene (MSTIN) and its contribution to affecting the average body weight in a sample of Iraqi brown local chickens.blood samples were collected and DNAextracted DNA with a concentration of 98% and a purity of 19.8, PCR-Product technique was used to multiply the segment of the Myostatin gene, and sent to the Republic of South Korea, Macrogen Corporation-Korea, and using the Sanger and Coulson method, the genotypes of genetic mutations were,by sequencing the percentages of individuals carrying it contributed to the variance of genetic frequency and chi-square values (24.8, 58.5 and 37.6 for mutations, respectively) and their incompatibility with the Hardy-Weinberg rule. …”
