An experiment was carried out on myostatin
gene with the objectives of identification of polymorphism
in the myostatin gene and estimation of the
effect of polymorphism on growth traits in chickens.
Single-stranded conformation polymorphism followed
by sequencing was performed to reveal polymorphism
of the gene. A total of 13 haplotypes were observed
across 3 chicken lines (PB-1 and CB as broiler lines and IWI as the layer line). Myostatin haplogroups had
a significant effect on BW at 28, 42, and 49 d of age
in the PB-1 line. The significant association of haplogroups
was observed with BW at d 14 and 49 in the
CB line. In the IWI layer line, the myostatin gene was
polymorphic but had no significant association with
growth traits. It is concluded that the myostatin gene
was polymorphic and had a significant effect on growth
traits in broiler chickens.
