Associations between polymorphisms in the myostatin gene with calving difficulty and carcass merit in cattle.

Journal of animal science - 3 Jan 2023

Abstract excerpt

A fully functional myostatin gene inhibits muscle fiber growth. The objective of the present study was to quantify the association between 21 known myostatin mutations with both calving and carcass traits in 12 cattle breeds. The myostatin genotypes of 32,770 dam-progeny combinations were used in the association analysis of calving dystocia, with the genotypes of 129,803 animals used in the mixed model...
