Abstract excerpt
Porcine uncoupling protein-3 gene was used to study its effect on carcass and meat quality traits. The UCP3 partial translated regions in skeletal muscle from four pig breeds were sequenced and the comparison of the fragment sequences among four pig breeds showed that there were three coding-region single nucleotide polymorphisms (cSNP), of which the mutation at 842 bp of the open reading frame can result in the...
