Genetic variation in the porcine myogenin gene locus.

Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society - 1 Aug 1997

Abstract excerpt

The myogenin (MYOG) gene fulfills a key function in muscle differentiation by controlling the onset of myoblast fusion and the establishment of myofibers. In meat-producing animals like pigs and cattle, myofiber numbers have been related to growth capacity. We have characterized the porcine MYOG gene to detect genetic variation at this locus and to relate it to growth characteristics. MYOG gene fragments were...
