Overview

Exploratory study characterizes molecular networks influencing meat quality in Guyuan and Wagyu cattle.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the molecular mechanisms influencing meat quality traits in Guyuan cattle.
  • Characterized meat quality phenotypes and transcriptomic profiles in Guyuan and Wagyu cattle.
  • Conducted differential expression analysis and phenotype correlation screening based on whole-transcriptome sequencing.
  • Constructed 16 co-expression networks and identified 37 differentially expressed genes linked to meat quality traits.
  • Significant differences observed in slaughter performance and meat quality traits between Guyuan and Wagyu cattle (n=6).
  • Identified 37 genes associated with fat deposition, shear force, and muscle development.
  • Predictive networks and potential target genes were established, albeit with small sample size limiting causal inference.
