Meanwhile, an association study was performed between MSTN genotypes and growth traits of Tan sheep, including birth weight, weaning weight, 3-month weight, and 6-month weight. The results showed that rs417816017 locus of MSTN gene in Tan sheep had two genotypes ： YY and XY. The individuals with genotype XY had a growth advantage over the ones with genotype YY. The results indicate that TaqMan probe-based real-time PCR assay can be used to detect the genotype of MSTN gene, which will provide candidate genes for breeding of Tan sheep.展开更多
