Variants at the ASIP locus contribute to coat color darkening in Nellore cattle

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2021
Background Nellore cattle (Bos indicus) are well-known for their adaptation to warm and humid environments. Hair length and coat color may impact heat tolerance.

Discriminant analysis of colour measurements reveals allele dosage effect of ASIP/MC1R in bay horses

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2018
Considering the variability of bay coat colour, we aimed to investigate the association of different shades of bay with ASIP and MC1R genotype combinations and we studied the discrimination between the bay and black coat colour.

Local Agouti Signaling Protein/Melanocortin Signaling System that Possibly Regulates Lipid Metabolism in Adipose Tissues of Chickens

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2010
The agouti signaling protein (ASIP)/melanocortin signaling system regulates lipid metabolism in humans but not in mice. To examine whether the system is present in adipose tissues in chickens, we performed reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction
