Association of a Glu92Lys substitution in MC1R with extended brown in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica).

Animal genetics - 1 Jun 2006

Nadeau N J, Minvielle F, Mundy N I

Abstract excerpt

We investigated melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) as a candidate locus for the Extended brown phenotype in quail, in which there is a general darkening throughout the plumage. An initial screen of variation in MC1R in Extended brown and in wild-type quails revealed two polymorphic non-synonymous sites. One of these sites, a G-to-A substitution leading to a Glu92Lys mutation, was perfectly associated with plumage...
