Evidence for multiple alleles effecting muscling and fatness at the Ovine GDF8 locus

BACKGROUND: The current investigation surveyed genetic polymorphism at the ovine GDF8 locus and determined its contribution to variation in muscling and fatness in sheep. RESULTS: Re-sequencing 2988 bp from a panel of 15 sires revealed a total of six SNP, none of which were located within exons of t...
