X-chromatin (drumstick) screening evaluated through the identification of the drumstick appendages of neutrophilis was carried on Nigerian goat breeds. 150 weaner bucks and 150 weaner does were used for the study. Some of the animals exhibited aberrant x-chromatin while some showed normal percentage of incidence of the drumstick. Both genotype and sex differences had significant effect (P>0.05) on the x-chromatin in genotype III (RSG * WAD), Genotype III design should not be used for reproductive purpose except on the ground of fattening for slaughter
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
