Abstract excerpt
To explore the relationship between PMEL gene and quail plumage color, to provide a reference for subsequent quail plumage color breeding. In this experiment, RT-qPCR technology was used to analyze the relative mRNA expression levels of Korean quail (maroon) and Beijing white quail embryos at different developmental stages. Two SNPs in PMEL gene were screened based on the RNA-Seq data of skin tissues of Korean...
