Molecular characterization of coat color gene in Sahiwal versus Karan Fries bovine [PDF]
Background Melanocortin-1-receptor gene (MC1R) plays a significant role in signaling cascade of melanin production. In cattle, the coat colors, such as red and black, are an outcome of eumelanin and pheomelanin pigments, respectively.
