Recently, Coiled-coil serine-rich protein 1 ( CCSER1 ) gene is reported to be related to economic traits in livestock, and become a hotspot. In our study, we detected  CCSER1  gene CNV in 693 goats from six breeds (GZB, GZW, AN, BH, HG, TH) by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and the association analysis between the types of CNV and growth traits. Then,  CCSER1  gene expression pattern was discovered in seven tissues from NB goats. Our results showed that the  CCSER1  gene copy numbers were distributed differently in the aforementioned six breeds. The type of  CCSER1  gene CNV was significantly associated with body weight and heart girth traits in GZW goat, in which individuals with deletion type were dominant in body weight trait ( P  &lt; 0.05), while the normal type individuals were more advantageous in heart girth trait ( P  &lt; 0.01); and there was a significant association with heart girth in TH goat ( P  &lt; 0.05), which normal type was the dominant one. The expression profile revealed that  CCSER1  gene has the highest level in the lung, followed by the small intestine and heart. In conclusion, our result is dedicated to an in-depth study of the novel  CCSER1  gene CNV site and to provide essential information for Chinese goats molecular selective breeding in the future.
