AB  - This study investigated the effects of four SNP in exon 3 
  of myostatin gene on growth, carcass and beef quality traits in China. A total 
  four SNPS (A&rarr;C, C&rarr;T, G&rarr;A, C&rarr;A) were detected among the 117 
  sequenced individuals. The experiment used four crossed breeds include the Limousin 
  cattle x Luxi yellow cattle (LL), Simmental cattle x Luxi yellow cattle (SL), 
  Charolais cattle x Simmental cattle x Luxi yellow cattle (CSL), Limousin cattle 
  x Simmental cattle x Luxi yellow cattle (LSL). In addition, research group also 
  included Qinchuan cattle (Chinese local breed) and one unidentified breeds. 
  The results showed that there are no differences in all detected traits wherever 
  between breed or within breed of different genotype in four mutative sites. 
  However, there are dominant differences between breeds under without considering 
  genotype circumstance. The results provided strong evidence that three mutative 
  site in exon 3 of MSTN might be some invalid mutation to the researched groups. 
  However, the body measurement, growth and carcass traits have dominant difference 
  in all breeds.
