Polymorphism of the melanocortin receptor gene and its association with egg production traits in Lohmann Brown chickens

The melanocortin gene (MC4R) was proposed as a candidate gene in this study for egg production traits (yield and weight) in Lohmann Brown hens. Two different primers from MC4R gene (MC4R-1 and MC4R-2) were investigated. DNA from blood samples was extracted to amplify the MC4R gene and the p...
