Yili Horse Breeding Method and Its Kit

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for breeding Ili horses by detecting the SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) of the Ili horses, and a kit employed by the method. Through the adoption of the method and the kit, the body size traits, namely body height, body length, chest girth and cannon circumference, of new groups for Ili horse meat can be remarkably enhanced, and the breeding of the new groups for Ili horse meat is promoted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of animal molecular biology and breeding, in particular to a breeding method for improving the body size traits of Yili horses and a kit thereof. Background technique [0002] Horse meat has excellent quality and taste, and is increasingly favored by consumers, with prices rising steadily. In recent years, with the further understanding of the physical and chemical properties and nutritional value of horse meat, their special functions have gradually become clear. Horse meat has more lean meat, less fat, and more unsaturated fatty acids. This unsaturated fatty acid can offset the harmful process of saturated fatty acids to promote cholesterol deposition in blood vessels. The cholesterol content in horse meat is low, and the cholesterol in every 100g of edible meat The content is only 10.4-31.9 mg, so it has a good effect on preventing atherosclerosis. Domestic horse meat consumption is mainly concentrated in Xinjia...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, as a large animal, the horse has a long generation interval, and the heritability of the main economic traits of the horse is low, so it is difficult to obtain more significant genetic progress by traditional breeding methods.
