Popis: The pituitary transcription factor (Pit-1) gene is one of the considered genes that responsible to growth in cattle . A specific Pit-1| Hinf I gene polymorphism located within exon 6 (g.1256G>A) has been shown to be associated with growth and milk traits in cattle. This study aimed to identify the Pit-1| Hinf 1 gene polymorphism in Grati-Ongole Grade cattle (Grati-OG cattle) . A total of 107 genomic DNA of Grati-OG cattle were used in this study. The detection of polymorphism was performed by PCR-RFLP method . Only AB and BB genotypes were succesfully identified with the frequency of 0.009 and 0.991, respectively. Whereas, the frequency of A and B alleles were 0.005 and 0.995, respectively. The observed genotype frequencies in this population do not deviated from HWE. The value of Ho, He and PIC were 0.009, 0.009 and 0.009, respectively. In conclusion, the Pit-1| Hinf I gene polymorphism in Grati- OG cattle is monomorphic and hence it should not be used in further association studies.
