Abstract excerpt
Wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 10B (WNT10B) may play an important role in inhibiting differentiation of preadipocytes in vitro and impairing adipose development in vivo. In this study, based on DNA sequencing and PCR-RFLP methods, we attempted to characterize the associations between common genetic polymorphisms in WNT10B and growth traits of 435 female cattle from three breeds (Jiaxian,...
