Abstract excerpt
Fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene is a famous dominant predictor of obesity, and plays pivotal roles in the regulating fatty acid transport and fat metabolism. In the current study, the quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), DNA-pooled sequencing and KAspar assay were performed to detect the expression features of FTO and the polymorphisms of FTO associated with the tail fat weight related-traits of Hu...
