Abstract

Four mutations(two transitions and two transversions)and six different haplotypes were found when the coding region sequences of MSTN gene of 18 Leiqiong cattles were analyzed.Polymorphisms was more abundant at leiqiong cattle MSTN gene,four mutational sites were detected(two transitions and two transversions).Six haplotypes were identified than that of Bos indicus cited from Genebank,Haplotype diversity of population was high(0.810±0.057);Analysis of the result of clustering :MSTN gene mutation happened probably before species differentiation of Bos indicus 、Bos Taurus and Bos grunniens;within zebu species,zebu population in South China maybe more primitive.
