Evaluating six positional candidate genes for effects on meat tenderness /

Six positional candidates genes were evaluated for their effects on previously identified meat tenderness QTL on BTA5. Candidate genes were selected using a human-bovine comparative map. Four genes, MMP19, WIF1, WNT1, WNT10B, and two genes, MYF5 and MYF6, were selected as candidate genes for WBSF...
