Global transcriptome analysis identifies differentially expressed genes related to lipid metabolism in Wagyu and Holstein cattle

Abstract Fat deposition of beef cattle varies between breeds. However, the regulation mechanism is still not elucidated completely at molecular level. In the present study, we comparatively analyzed transcriptome of subcutaneous adipose tissue between Wagyu and Holstein cattle with a significant dif...
