Such advanced technology and innovation that we are facing is necessary to adopt in Mongolia. In this study, the myostatin gene （MSTN） was investigated as a candidate gene for meat animal in Mongolian breeds of cattle. The conventional phenol-chloroform method and FavorPrepTM tissue DNA extraction kit were used for DNA isolation, and the polymerase chain reaction （PCR） and sequencing analysis were used for further study. The nucleotide sequences of MSTN gene from Selenge, Kazakh white head breeds and Mongolian cattle were sequenced and reported on the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank database （LC142726, LC146648, LC146649）, and Selenge breed showed the result of single nucleotide mutation in MSTN gene.展开更多
