Abstract excerpt

The MYF5 gene has been reported to be integral to muscle growth and development, and hence it has been considered as a candidate gene for meat selection programs in pig. To ascertain whether there was variation in the porcine MYF5 gene, we have developed a method of PCR-single-strand conformational polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis. In this study, two coding regions of the MYF5 gene were investigated. Four unique...
