Identification of a major locus interacting with MC1R and modifying black coat color in an F(2) Nellore-Angus population

BACKGROUND: In cattle, base color is assumed to depend on the enzymatic activity specified by the MC1R locus, i.e. the extension locus, with alleles coding for black (E( D )), red (e), and wild-type (E( + )). In most mammals, these alleles are presumed to follow the dominance model of E( D ) > E(...
