WebIn addition, the possible effect of the Limousin myostatin F94L allele was tested by fitting each calf's myostatin genotype, and 16 QTL were identified. Twelve were in common with those QTL identified previously, comprising six affecting the liver (copper and zinc, on two chromosomes each; plus iron and molybdenum), three affecting the kidney ... WebThe results provide strong evidence that this myostatin F94L variant provides an intermediate and more useful phenotype than the more severe double-muscling phenotype caused by knockout mutations in the myostatin gene.

Effects of the myostatin F94L substitution on beef traits
WebJan 4, 2024 · A missense F94L mutation of the bovine myostatin gene (MSTN-F94L) has been used as an alternative marker for increasing meat yield without any severe problems … Web73 myostatin propeptide (Grobet ., 1998;Dunner et al., 2003;Lee, 2004). The et al 74 substitution of F94L has been shown recently to affect muscling in Jersey and Limousin WebJan 1, 2010 · The F94L mutation is not, like other myostatin mutations, associated with reduced fertility and dystocia. It is therefore a candidate for introgression into other breeds to improve retail beef yield and the development of a simple and accurate test to genotype this specific mutation is warranted. bridging health
