Identification of a Potential Marker for Absence of Dark Fibre in Vicugna pacos (alpaca)
The Melanocortin-1 receptor gene was sequenced in a group of 41 Australian alpacas and seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified within the coding region (D42D, N118N, L206L, E311E, T28A, G126S and R301C). Three of these SNP (T28A, G126S and R301C) showed an association with phen...
