Haplotypes for Type, Degree, and Rate of Marbling in Cattle Are Syntenic with Human Muscular Dystrophy

Figure 5

Crossbreds perform as Wagyu if they possess a Wagyu haplotype. Tm measurements from 9 full blood and 16 crossbred entries to AWA branded beef competition from 2014 and 2015. There are crossbred Wagyu with Tm as low as full bloods. Mean Tm with error bars ± 1 SEM. SREB-TCAP haplotypes. White squares indicate animals with at least one 60.10.S.10 haplotype, pale grey squares indicate animals with at least one 30.20.S.20 haplotype, and dark grey squares indicate animals with neither common Wagyu haplotype.
