Cattle-yak, which is the hybrid F generation of cattle and yak, demonstrates better production performance compared to yak. However, there is limited research on the molecular mechanisms responsible for the muscle development of cattle-yak. To address this knowledge gap, a comprehensive transcriptomic survey of the longissimus dorsi muscle in cattle-yak was conducted.

In this study, tandem mass tag (TMT) proteomics technology was used to determine the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) of the (LL) muscle of Jersey-yak fed different protein levels of diet.

Article Synopsis
- * Researchers analyzed 93 yaks from eight breeds, using genomic methods to identify specific sites in the genome and to demonstrate that Meiren yak holds significant genetic potential.
- * The study found genes in Meiren yak that are positively selected for high-altitude adaptation, providing valuable insights for genetic improvement and the development of high-quality yak resources.
