The e and E+ are the main MC1R haplotypes in taurine or intermediate breeds from China. The haplotypes defined by c.416C>T, c.583C>T and c.890T>C, found mostly in China and Bangladesh, are the typical haplotypes of Bos indicus.

Recombinants in a 5 Mb region surrounding the cluster of tyrosine kinase receptor genes implicated PDGFRA as the strongest positional candidate gene interacting with MC1R and modifying black coat color in an F Nellore-Angus population.
Title: Identification of a major locus interacting with MC1R and modifying black coat color in an F₂ Nellore-Angus population.
Six solid colors occur in Highland cattle: black, dun, silver dun and red, yellow, and white. These six coat colors are explained by a non-epistatic interaction of the genotypes at the MC1R and PMEL genes.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
