Evolution and differentiation of MSHR gene in different species.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Li Xiang-Long, Zheng Gui-Ru, Zhou Rong-Yan, Li Lan-Hui

Abstract excerpt

Coat color offers some prospects for evolutionary studies due to its large amount of presumably adaptive coat color variation and conserved genetic mechanisms of generating different coat colors in different species. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor (MSHR) gene is responsible for intraspecific and interspecific color variation in mammals and birds. A total number of 206 MSHR gene sequences belonging to 84...
