Abstract: 【Objective】 The purpose of this study is to reveal the genetic variation characteristics of bovine ANGPTL6 gene and find several candidate molecular markers that related to growth traits of Luxi cattle, thus for accumulating some basic information for molecular breeding of Luxi cattle breed.【Method】As investigative materials blood samples collected from 183 Luxi cows were used and sequence variants within ANGPTL6 gene were detected by DNA pool sequencing and PCR-RFLP technology.【Result】The results showed that three novel SNPs within the intron region of ANGPTL6 gene were identified in Luxi cattle breed. χ2 test showed that three loci of the Luxi cattle population were all in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05). Analysis of genetic diversity indicated T2359C and G3258T loci were at intermediate polymorphic status, but C2403A locus was at low polymorphic status. Further, the linkage disequilibrium and haplotypes were analyzed among three SNPs, suggested that they are all little linked. Interestingly, haplotype of TCG (wild-type) was dominant (with frequency of 44.3%). The variance analysis showed that the different genotypes of single and combined site were all significantly or extremely significantly associated with growth traits of Luxi cattle, and the growth traits of heterozygous individuals were all higher than the homozygous individuals.【Conclusion】The three novel SNPs are all significantly related to growth traits of Luxi cattle, and the heterozygous individuals are all more superior than the homozygous individuals, which suggested these results could apply to molecular breeding industry of Luxi cattle.
