Inheritance of breast muscle morphology in turkeys at sixteen weeks of age.

Poultry science - 1 Jul 2004

Velleman S G, Nestor K E

Abstract excerpt

The inheritance of morphology of the pectoralis major muscle in turkeys at 16 wk of age was studied in a randombred control line (RBC2), a subline (F) of RBC2 selected long term for increased 16 wk BW only, and F1 and F2 crosses of the F and RBC2 lines. Samples of pectoralis major muscle were obtained from 10 males and 10 females of each genetic group in a manner to avoid muscle contraction. After being fixed and...
