Association of a single nucleotide polymorphism in titin gene with marbling in Japanese Black beef cattle

BMC Research Notes

Table 2 Effect of the SNP genotypes on marbling and subcutaneous fat thickness in experiment 1

		Breeding value*
Genotype	No. of animals	Marbling score	Subcutaneous fat thickness (mm)
CT	47	2.81^a ± 0.25	-2.85 ± 0.74
CC	50	2.13^b ± 0.23	-2.84 ± 0.80

*The breeding values are given as estimates ± SE.
^{a, b}Estimates at different genotypes without a common letter in their superscripts significantly differ (P < 0.01).
