摘要

In West Africa, consumers pay a major attention on the coat colour of the sheep due to religious and cultural reasons. White coated?individuals reach?selling prices up to three-fold higher than black coated sheep.?The aim of this study was to ascertain the genotypic and allelic frequencies of?MC1R?and?ASIP?genes in order to assesspossible implementation of breeding programmes focusing on the increase of the white coated sheep frequencies.?A total of 113 individuals?belonging to three Burkina Faso sheep breeds (Burkina-Sahel, Djallonké and Mossi) and one Niger sheep breed (Touareg) were genotyped for the?MC1R?and?ASIP?genes.?The wild allele of the?ASIPgene (Awt; 54.30%) was the most frequent in the four West African sheep, particularly in Burkina-Sahel (85%) and Touareg breeds (80%). The dominant black ED?allele was not identified in Burkina-Sahel and Touareg. Most of the analysed individuals were homozygous for wild?MC1R?allele (E+/E+) with 100, 73.5, 59 and 100% frequency in Burkina-Sahel, Djallonké, Mossi and Touareg, respectively. The Awt/Awt?was the most frequent genotype on the?ASIP?gene in the four West African breeds (80.53%). No individuals were homozygous for the deletion (allele Adel). Although, no routine methods for detection of the genetic basis of the recessive black coat colour patterns can be easily implemented, the current results suggest the feasibility of a selection programme aiming at decreasing the frequencies of the dominant black ED?allele in Burkina Faso sheep breeds.
