Haemoglobin Polymorphism in Malabari Goats
2010
K. A. Bindu and K. C. Raghavan
Malabari Goat populations of Tanur, Thalassery and Badagara were studied for haemoglobin polymorphism. Two variants were observed for haemoglobin, Hb A and Hb B with a frequency of 0.987 and 0.012, respectively, suggestive of three phenotypes, viz. Hb AA, Hb AB and Hb BB, and indicating the predominance of Hb A in the pooled population. Hb B variant was observed only in the Thalassery population (gene frequency 0.038). [Vet.
