摘要
GPAT,AIRC and purH genes are involved in the de novo purine biosynthesis,and they all had significant effects on muscle inosine monophosphate(IMP) content in chickens.This study was designed to investigate the effects of GPAT,AIRC and purH genes on muscle IMP content in a relatively large population of Baier chickens;single genotype effects as well as the combined genotype effects were analyzed.The results further support that GPAT,AIRC and purH genes had effects on muscle IMP content;they might be candidate loci or linked to major genes affecting muscle IMP content.The combined genotypic effects were significantly higher than those of the single genotypes and were even larger when more gene loci were combined.We tentatively conclude that combined genotypes are superior to single genotypes as potential molecular markers for meat quality traits in chicken.
