Popis: | Background and Aim: The availability of fertility markers is crucial for maintaining, protecting, and improving the genetics of Jawa-Brebes (Jabres) cows. Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) play critical roles in female reproductive physiology. The single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) FSHR G-278A> and IGF-1 C-512T correlate with cows' fertility traits. This study aimed to identify these SNPs and their potential associations with fertility parameters in Jabres cows. Materials and Methods: Samples were collected from 45 heads of multiparous Jabres cows aged 3–10 years with body condition scores of 2.5–5.0 on a 5-point scale in Brebes Regency, Java, Indonesia. These cows were assigned to fertile (n = 16) and infertile groups (n = 29). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out for DNA amplification of FSHR G-278A and IGF-1 C-512T fragments. Restriction fragment length polymorphism-PCR with the restriction enzymes FaqI for the product of FSHR G-278A and SnaBI for the product of IGF-1 C-512T was used to identify SNPs. Results: The FaqI enzyme cut the 211 bp DNA fragment of FSHR G-278A in all samples into two bands of 128 bp and 83 bp (GG genotype). Meanwhile, the genotyping of amplicon products of IGF-1 C-512T generated a single 249 bp fragment (CC genotype) in both groups. Conclusion: The results showed that the FSHR G-278A/FaqI and IGF-1 C-512T/SnaBI loci were monomorphic in Jabres cows. Thus, neither FSHR G-278A/FaqI nor IGF-1 C-512T/SnaBI is a possible genetic marker for fertility in Jabres cows. |
