Abstract excerpt
Fetal and neonatal myosin heavy chain (MHC) gene expression was examined in bovine genotypes that differed in their postnatal growth pattern and mature size. Pregnancies were established that would be expected to produce early-, intermediate-, or late-maturing postnatal growth. Fetal skeletal and...
