Genotype D2D2 at POU1F1-DdeI locus, genotype TC at POU1F1-AluI locus and genotype X2X2 at IGFBP3-XspI locus were found for the first time in Guanzhong dairy goats.
The POU1F1-AluI polymorphism was significantly associated with milk performance in Guanzhong dairy goats.
Genotype TT of the POU1F1-AluI locus was suggested to be an effective DNA marker for senior milk fat content or acidity in dairy goats.
