https://doi.org/10.26897/2074-0840-2025-3-6-8

Abstract

The article presents the results of an analysis of the polymorphism of allele frequencies in sheep of the Tuvan short-fat-tailed breed associated with susceptibility/resistance to the Maedi-Visna virus. 368 sheep including rams (n=66), ewes (n=207) and young ewes (n=95). It was found that this studied sample of sheep is susceptible to the Maedi-Visna virus.
