| Abstract | The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of the combined genotype of two previously reported SNP in fatty acid synthase gene (FASN; g.16024G>A, g.17924A>G) on the fatty acid composition of intramuscular and subcutaneous fat in a total of 602 Fleckvieh bulls. In both types of the adipose tissue, significant differences were observed for nutritionally important myristic, palmitic, myristoleic and oleic acids. It was concluded that genetic variations in the FASN gene explained part of the variability of FA composition in the beef adipose tissue and might be used as genetic markers for the improvement of meat quality in Fleckvieh cattle. |
