Abstract
We herein describe a procedure that allows for simultaneous genotyping of six loss-of-function mutations in the bovine myostatin gene associated with the double-muscling phenotype. The proposed method relies on a multiplex oligonucleotide
ligation assay and detection of the
fluorescently labelled products using automatic sequencers.
