    Abstract:
    PCR-SSCP and DNA sequencing methods were applied to reveal three novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in exon 2 of the POU1F1 gene in 963 Chinese cattle belonging to eight breeds. Among them, a silent SNP (NM_174579:c.545G > A) detected by TaqI endonuclease is described. Frequencies of the POU1F1-G allele varied from 0.685 to 1.000. The association of TaqI polymorphism with growth traits was analyzed in 251 Nanyang cattle. No significant associations of the TaqI polymorphism with body weight and average daily gain for different growth periods (6, 12, 18, and 24 months old) were observed (P > 0.05), as well as for body sizes (P > 0.05).
