Abstract
Results demonstrated that in meat quail, three genotypes (AA, BB and AB) were detected at locus A and B in MyoG gene. Locus A is significantly correlated with weight and body length of meat quail (P<0.05). Locus B is significantly correlated with weight, breastbone length and body length of meat quail (P<0.05). The MyoG gene can be used for marker-assisted selection of growth traits in meat quails.
