Association of MyoD1a and MyoD1b gene polymorphisms and meat quality traits in rainbow trout

W. X. Chen, Ma, Y., and Liu, K. H., Association of MyoD1a and MyoD1b gene polymorphisms and meat quality traits in rainbow trout, vol. 14, pp. 9034-9044, 2015.

In this study, we identified myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) and analyzed the correlation between MRFs and meat quality in rainbow trout. The MyoD1a and MyoD1b genes were cloned from rainbow trout using a homology cloning method. Introns 1 and 2 in the MyoD1a and MyoD1b genes were cloned and submitted to GenBank (accession Nos. FJ623462 and FJ793566). Polymorphisms of MyoD1a and MyoD1b genes were analyzed using single-strand conformation polymorphism and sequencing, respectively.
