The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of  OSMR  and  GHR  genes polymorphisms on growth traits in sheep. The single nucleotide polymorphisms of sheep  OSMR  and  GHR  genes were identified by DNA sequencing technology. A total of two intronic mutations g.2443 T &gt; C and g.170196 A &gt; G were identified in  OSMR  and  GHR , respectively. Correlation analysis was carried out between the obtained genotypes and the growth traits of sheep. The results showed that at the  OSMR  g.2443 T &gt; C locus, the body weight, chest circumference and cannon circumference of the TT genotype sheep were significantly higher than those of the CC genotype sheep ( p  &lt; .05). At the  GHR  g.170196 A &gt; G locus, the body weight, body length, chest circumference and cannon circumference of the AA genotype sheep were significantly higher than those of the AG genotype and GG genotype sheep ( p  &lt; .05). Moreover, the body weight of sheep of combination TTOSMR/AAGHRgenotype was significantly higher than that of other combination genotypes ( p  &lt; .05). Therefore, we believe that the polymorphic sites identified in the  OSMR  and  GHR  genes can be used as candidate molecular markers for breeding good traits in sheep.
