Abstract excerpt

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and myostatin (MSTN) are paracrine regulators of muscle growth. The present study was conducted to relate their expression with muscle fibre development in chickens selected for high breast meat yield and their controls. Both mRNA levels were measured by real-time RT-PCR in the Pectoralis major (PM) muscle between 14 days in ovo and 6 weeks post-hatch and in the Sartorius...
