Identification of polymorphisms in MITF and DCT genes and their associations with plumage colors in Asian duck breeds

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the melanogenesis associated transcription factor (MITF) and dopachrome tautomerase (DCT) genes on plumage coloration in Asian native duck breeds. MITF encodes a protein for microphthalmia-ass...
