<![CDATA[This research was aimed to identify the changes of nucleotide (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) growth hormone gene in the population of Aceh cattle. There were 44 samples of DNA sequenced, and a few samples from Gen Bank (M57764). Based on the analysis using MEGA program, it was identified one new mutation on exon five on 2230 bp in which C nucleotide turned into T nucleotide, and this was called Silent Mutation (Leusine-Leusine/ CTC-CTT). The frequency of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) genotype on 2230 bp (C/T) was CC (0.36), TT (0.14) and CT (0.50). The genotype TT was not possessed by Aceh cattle from Saree, but possessed by those from Banda Aceh and Indrapuri. Chi-square test showed not significant differences in allele frequencies for three population. The frequency of genotype SNP on 2291 bp (A/C) was AC (0.11) and CC (0.89). The frequency of allele C was higher than allele A and T.]]>
