Genetic variation in the beta, beta-carotene-9', 10'-dioxygenase gene and association with fat colour in bovine adipose tissue and milk.

Animal genetics - 1 Jun 2010

Abstract excerpt

beta, beta-carotene-9', 10'-dioxygenase (BCO2) plays a role in cleaving beta-carotene eccentrically, and may be involved in the control of adipose and milk colour in cattle. The bovine BCO2 gene was sequenced as a potential candidate gene for a beef fat colour QTL on chromosome (BTA) 15. A single...
