Associations of MYF5 gene polymorphisms with meat quality traits in different domestic pig (Sus scrofa) populations

Associations of MYF5 gene polymorphisms with meat quality traits in different domestic pig (Sus scrofa) populations

The MYF5 gene is first inducibly expressed in muscle cell during embryonic muscle development and plays an important role in regulating the differentiation of skeletal muscle precursors. In this study we used PCR-RFLP to investigate two pig (Sus scrofa) populations (n = 302) for two MYF5 gene polymo...
