Short summary
In this study, InDels loci of YAP and TAZ genes in two goat breeds were screened and identified, and the association between InDels loci of YAP and TAZ genes and growth traits was analyzed. The results showed that eight InDels loci were identified from goat YAP and TAZ genes. These InDels loci significantly affected growth traits such as chest width, body height, and body weight of goats. These findings can provide new molecular markers for goat molecular breeding.
