Myostatin is a member of TGF-� super family and is directly involved in regulation of body growth
through limiting muscular growth. A study was carried out in three chicken lines to identify the
polymorphism in the coding region of the myostatin gene through SSCP and DNA sequencing. A
total of 12 haplotypes were observed in myostatin coding region of chicken. Significant
associations between haplogroups with body weight at day 1, 14, 28, and 42 days, and carcass
traits at 42 days were observed across the lines. It is concluded that the coding region of myostatin
gene was polymorphic, with varied levels of expression among lines and had significant effects on
growth traits. The expression of MSTN gene varied during embryonic and post hatch development
stage.
