Polymorphism of the prolactin gene and its association with reproductive traits in F2 local crossed chickens
This study demonstrates the significant role of the PRL gene in influencing reproductive traits in F2 local crossed chickens. While crossing patterns showed limited impact, specific SNPs in exon 5 of the PRL gene were associated with BW, EW, and EL. The findings highlight PRL gene polymorphisms as valuable markers for improving reproductive traits in poultry breeding programs.
