A simple PCR-RFLP test for direct identification of Melanocortin Receptor 1 (MC1R) alleles causing red coat colour in Holstein cattle
A direct test to determine the presence of the recessive alleles causing red colour in Holstein cattle at DNA level is proposed.<br />Digestions with two restriction enzymes were used to detect individuals carrying recessive alleles of Melanocortin<br />Receptor 1 (MC1R) gene, responsibl...
