The aim of this research was to detect polymorphisms within the IGF-I gene in dairy sheep and to verify their influence on milk yield and reproductive performances. Four hundred Sarda ewes in their second lactation were selected from 2 farms. Their reproductive traits (fertility rate, interval in days from ram introduction to lambing and litter size) and milk yield were recorded, from the second to the fourth lactation. DNA was extracted from individual blood samples and subjected to amplification and sequencing of the IGF-I gene 5′ UTR and Exon 3 regions. Three polymorphic sites were recorded at positions g184028491C>G and g184028489C>T of the 5′UTR, and g184023223G>A of the Exon 3. The C allele at position g184028491 showed a significant association with higher fertility rate (P |
