Two new structural mutations in the 5′ region of the ASIP gene cause diluted feather color phenotypes in Japanese quail

BACKGROUND: In quail, two feather colour phenotypes i.e. fawn-2/beige and yellow are associated with the ASIP locus. The aim of our study was to characterize the structural modifications within this locus that explain the yellow mutation (large deletion) and the fawn-2/beige mutation (assumed to be...
