Abstract excerpt
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), a major regulator of neuroendocrine response to stress, is involved in the control of energy balance and thus may affect body composition and growth. The porcine CRH (pCRH) gene was studied as a comparative-positional candidate for QTL for longissimus muscle...
