Abstract excerpt
Metabolites in skeletal muscles play an important role in their growth, development, immunity and other physiological activities. However, the genetic basis of metabolites in skeletal muscle remains poorly understood. Here, we identified 247 candidate divergent regions containing 905 protein-coding genes closely related to metabolic pathways, including lysine degradation and fatty acid biosynthesis. We then...
