The determination of the IMF [intramuscular fat] and its composition is necessary to select independently for IMF and back fat thickness successfully. The identification of genes and/or biomarkers associated with the fat deposition is important for the development of selection criteria for IMF. The results of this study suggest that selection against ACC and SCD in SB could be a way of tackling the problem. Analysis of SCD expression in muscle could be used to predict IMF and MUFA content.
