Abstract excerpt
Through polymorphism analysis of genes associated with hindquarters development on chromosome 18 in Xinjiang meat sheep, we sought genes that are associated with increased hindquarters musculature in the hope to provide theoretical guidance to molecular marker-assisted selection of meat sheep. The polymorphism of Callipyge (CLPG) gene was analyzed by PCR-SSCP and PCR-RFLP in populations of Dorset and Suffolk...
