Abstract excerpt

Myostatin (MSTN) gene, also known as growth and differentiation factor 8 (GDF8) gene, is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth and development, especially the number, size and type of muscle fibers. Its mutations contribute to the double-muscling (DBM) phenomenon which significantly increases the muscle mass. Hence, variations within MSTN/GDF8 gene receive so much attention in several kinds of species...
