IGF -1 Gene Polymorphism and its Association with Cashmere Fiber Trait in Changthangi Goats

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2019
The Cashmere (Pashmina) fiber attracts great demand worldwide for its fineness. To identify and determine the role of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) gene polymorphism on Pashmina fiber traits (quality and quantity), exon IV, and part of intron IV of the IGF-1 gene of Changthangi goats were analyzed.
