Another SNP (rs419889303) was observed within CLRN1 gene on chromosome 1 which has been implicated with microtia in Valle del Belice sheep [5], GG genotype frequencies were 75% in control and 5% in microtia and found to be 100% in control and 70% in both anotia-microtia, GA were 25% in control and 55% in microtia, while in our results, they were 0% in control and 20% in both anotia-microtia samples. Here, CLRN1 is linked to microtia.
