Resumen

Los rasgos reproductivos tienen relativamente una heredabilidad baja o media y no muestran una respuesta notable a la selección fenotípica. Por lo tanto, la inclusión de la información genética de los genes asociados a la capacidad reproductiva puede mejorar eficazmente la respuesta de selección. Se han estudiado a escala mundial los principales genes importantes que afectan a la prolificidad y su diversidad genética en diferentes razas de ovejas. En varias razas de ovejas de todo el mundo se han encontrado diferentes mutaciones asociadas a rasgos reproductivos, como la tasa de ovulación y el tamaño de la camada. Una visión general de los estudios sobre los principales genes de la proliferación mostró que algunos alelos pueden expresar diferentes efectos fenotípicos en diferentes razas y, por lo tanto, se necesitan más estudios sobre los efectos de interacción para una mayor comprensión del control genético de la reproducción en las ovejas. En cuanto a la metodología de evaluación de los rasgos de prolificidad, se hace necesaria la aplicación de nuevas tecnologías para encontrar nuevas variantes, lo que es esencial para futuros estudios. La metodología adoptada fue un estudio descriptivo, que dio lugar a una revisión bibliográfica basada en artículos científicos de todo el mundo.
