Scrapie, a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, is known to be influenced by certain PRNP genotypes, and some research has shown that these genotypes can impact the productive performance of affected sheep populations. The study was conducted on Karakul sheep populations. The main aim of this work was the analysis between PRNP genotypes and productive characters (body weight, coat color etc.). Based on the breeding values, the retention of the most valuable individuals for reproduction is to be carried out according to the desired proportion of retentions. From the data analysed, none unfavorable association was observed between the PRNP allele, type, or reproductive traits. It is important to assess the wider context in which numerous variables interact to influence the productive performance of sheep populations. More studies are needed to better understand the complexities of this connection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
