Removal of undesirable MC1R gene alleles from ‘Berrenda en Negro’, an endangered Spanish cattle breed, to enhance breed conservation programs
Livestock Science（2022）
Abstract
•Genetic analyses were performed in order to identify the Extensión locus genotypes•Nine strategies for removal of animals carrying undesirable alleles were evaluated•Results are very promising for management of Berrenda en Negro conservation program•The most suitable strategy was to prioritise the elimination of EDe animals•Coat markers might be used to differentiateproducts from others breeds ones
