Abstract

 The fecundity in sheep has been much interested for producers due to its economical importance. Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) is an autosomal gene with over dominance effect for two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which resulted in sterility in homozygote mutant ewes and additive effect for three SNPs, without showing sterility event. In the present study, DNA was extracted from whole blood of 19 IRANian AFSHARI and 8 SHAL sheep breeds. The extracted DNA was multiplied several folds for G1, G4 and G8 sites in GDF9 gene through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique and was sent for sequencing. Results showed that G1-GDF9 mutation (arginine to histidine shift) was detected in AFSHARI breed, while G4-GDF9 mutation (glutamic acid to lysine shift) was detected in both AFSHARI and SHAL breeds. The observed SNPs were recorded with very low frequency (<8%) in fertile ewes with twining birth, while infertile ewe did not carry the mutant allele. This might indicate an association between these mutations and twin-births in IRANian breeds. Fur-thermore, these mutations could not be the reason for ewe infertility. In consistent with the rare frequency of infertility in IRANian sheep, the investigated population lacked the G8 or Thoka mutations, which are the most effective mutations in GDF9 gene. This may be due to lack or rare fre-quency of this SNP in IRANian sheep flocks. In conclusion, G1- and G4-GDF9 SNPs are segregating with very low frequency in IRANian sheep flocks, so that no homozygous ewe for these SNPs was detected in the current study. The same phenomenon could be the case for other important mutations and the sample size should be very large to rule out presence of such mutations in IRANian sheep breeds.
