Abstract: In an attempt to further screen the candidate genes associated with tail fat deposition of Tan sheep, the mRNA expression of six candidate genes (PDGFD, CAV1, PPARG, HSL, PLA2G16, RETN) screened by genechip scanning and selection signatures detection was quantitatively assessed. The mRNA expression of the six genes were simultaneously observed in the tail fat tissue of Tan sheep, and the significantly higher mRNA expression was found in HSL gene (P〈0.05). The results obtained in this study provide valuable references for tail type selection and variety improvement of Tan sheep.
