A Nonsynonymous Single-nucleotide Polymorphism in SLC24A5 Regulates Feather Pigment Deposition in Chinese Yellow Quail

A Nonsynonymous Single-nucleotide Polymorphism in SLC24A5 Regulates Feather Pigment Deposition in Chinese Yellow Quail

Plumage color in birds is determined by melanin, whose synthesis and transport are affected by many genes, including specific solute carriers (SLCs). The main objective of this study was to detect polymorphisms in the SLC24A5 gene of the Chinese yellow quail (Coturnix japonica) and analyze their eff...
