Sequencing-based polymorphism in leptin receptor gene and lack of association with postpartum anestrus in Murrah buffaloes

In order to detect polymorphism in exon 20 of the leptin receptor (LEPR) gene and its possible association with postpartum anestrus (PPA), peripheral blood samples were obtained from 40 Murrah buffaloes including 20 PPA (>120 days after parturition) and 20 normal cyclic (
