Identification of polymorphisms in TYRP1, DCT and RAB38 genes and their association with coat color in alpacas

ObjectiveThe goal of this study was to characterize and investigate the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or InDels in tyrosinase related protein 1 (TYRP1), dopachrome tautomerase (DCT), and Ras-related protein 38 (RAB38) genes on coat color in South American camelids. TYRP1 is among...
