The g.4290 C>G Polymorphism in the <i>FADS2</i> Gene Modifies the Fatty Acid Profile of the <i>Pectoralis Superficialis</i> Muscle of Ross 308 Broiler Chickens

The effect of the g.4290 C>G substitution in the <i>FADS2</i> gene and g.285 C>T in the <i>FABP4</i> gene on carcass quality, meat quality, and fatty acid profile of the <i>pectoralis superficialis</i> muscle of 238 male broiler chickens reared up to 45 days...

description The effect of the g.4290 C>G substitution in the <i>FADS2</i> gene and g.285 C>T in the <i>FABP4</i> gene on carcass quality, meat quality, and fatty acid profile of the <i>pectoralis superficialis</i> muscle of 238 male broiler chickens reared up to 45 days of age was analyzed. A significant influence of g.4290 C>G in the <i>FADS2</i> gene on the <i>pectoralis superficialis</i> muscle fatty acid profile was demonstrated. Chickens with the GG genotype were characterized by the highest content of conjugated linoleic acid, amino acids, eicosapentaenoic acids, docosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acids. and the lowest value of the linoleic acid/alpha-linolenic acid ratio. The <i>FABP4</i> polymorphism determined only the content of C18:1n-9, C18:2n-6 and docosahexaenoic acid. There was no effect of the studied genotypes on final body weight, carcass quality traits, or quality of broiler pectoral muscles.
