Dissertation note In farm animals, the primary focus of selection has been to improve milk yield. Milk field is a polygenic trait and a few potential candidate genes have been recognized.

Association studies have shown that POUlFl is related to many production traits in

domestic animals and is one of those candidate genes that are involved in milk

production. POUl F 1 encodes a pituitary-specific transcription factor. It is well

established that growth hormone (GH) released from pituitary gland plays an essential

role in growth, mammary gland development and lactation process. The bovine

POUlFl gene is of 15952 bp length having 6 exons. The genetic characterization of

the POUlFl gene to identify the SNPs as genetic markers and validation of these

potential markers by associating them with milk production traits has been performed.

A total 35 samples from Sahiwal and 30 from Holstein-Friesian cattle breeds were

sequenced for all 6 exonic portions of the POUlFl by using 6 sets of primers. A total

15 polymorphic sites in Sahiwal and 14 in Holstein-Friesian were identified from

these sequences. Out of total 15 SNPs identified in Sahiwal, 12 were in intronic

region and 3 were in exonic. Out of 14 SNPs identified in Holstein-Friesian, 10 were

in intronic and 4 were in exonic region. The sequences of the amplified POUl F 1 gene

fragments were aligned with the help of BLAST for SNPs identification. This study is

first step in finding some confirmed markers for milk yield in Sahiwal and Holstein-

Friesian cattle breed that can be used in future for selection and breeding programmes.
