The aim of this study was to detect polymorphism in the bovine bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) gene. On the basis of PCR-SSCP and DNA sequencing, a 4-bp deletion was identified in the coding region of the gene. Sequence analysis revealed that the deletion altered the reading frame and introduced a stop codon at position 264. Eight breeds (Luxi, Qinchuan, Nanyang, Jinnan, Bohai Black, Menggolian, Holstein, and Simmental) were genotyped by PCR-SSCP. No cows homozygous for this mutation were observed in these breeds. Heterozygous cows were detected in Luxi, Qinchuan, Nanyang, Jinnan and Bohai Black cattle. Fecundity was not increased in heterozygous individuals.
