Polymorphisms in swine candidate genes for meat quality detected by PCR-SSCP

In order to identify SNPs in seven candidate genes for meat quality, PCR-SSCP experiments were carried out. Statistical analyses in a population of 240 individuals identified the animals constituting the extreme tails of the Gaussian distribution for three selected phenotypes: muscle compactness, fa...
