Abstract
More attention was paid on meat quality by both consumers and producers. Meat quality traits influenced its economical value directly. The high development of molecular biology had stimulated people’s care and accelerated their study for genes concerning meat quality. In this paper, the research advance of major genes such as hal gene, PRKAG3 gene, rendement napole gene (RN) and of candidate gene such as fat acid binding protein (FABPs ) , hormone-sensitive lipase gene (HSL ) , lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL ) were reviewed.
