Abstract excerpt

Indicine cattle display a broad range of coat colors, representing a relevant and breed-defining trait required for registration in breeder association. Among the genes involved in pigmentation, MC1R stands out for modulating the synthesis of melanin-related proteins and remains poorly explored in indicine cattle breeds. Therefore, we aimed to perform fine mapping of the MC1R gene and to evaluate the association...
