Skeletal muscle mitochondrial bioenergetics and associations with myostatin genotypes in the Thoroughbred horse.
Variation in the myostatin (MSTN) gene has been reported to be associated with race distance, body composition and skeletal muscle fibre composition in the horse. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that MSTN variation influences mitochondrial phenotypes in equine skeletal muscle...
