Abstract excerpt
Exploring molecular markers related to economic traits of livestock is of great significance to breeding. Long-chain fatty acid COA synthetase (ACSL) plays a crucial role in lipid synthesis and metabolism, which may affect animal growth. This study was to investigate the polymorphism of ACSL gene and its association with the growth trait of the donkey. Three insertions and two deletions were detected on the...
