Association of Melanocortin (MC4R) and Myostatin (MSTN) genes with carcass quality in rabbit.

Meat science - 1 Mar 2018

El-Sabrout Karim, Aggag Sarah

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to investigate the association of Melanocortin (MC4R) and Myostatin (MSTN) with the carcass quality of V-line and Alexandria line rabbits. MC4R and MSTN were screened by single-strand conformational polymorphism analysis (SSCP) then DNA was sequenced. The results identified four novel SNPs using the four studied primers of the MC4R and MSTN genes. The genotype (BB) has significant higher...
