what is F49L gene? a muscling gene?

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

The F94l gene is a muscleing gene.

 

[bluedog]

is it a myostatin gene? like piedmontese,or belgium blue.that carry tenderness gene?

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

No its not. It does not cause double muscling. It seems all fullblood limousin carry two copies of the f94L gene. It also occurs in other breeds as well.

 

[bluedog]

when you cross pied. with angus,you only get 1copy muscle,but still get tender genes. does l94l not have tender gene?
