摘要：) decay tends to be lower in CHCU compared to CHA probably due to a less intense artificial selection programs of CHCU. Signals of recent adaptation to tropical conditions between CHCU and CHA were identified. Genes mapping within those regions reflect different functions related to immunity, metabolic changes and heat tolerance (CHCU) and muscle development and meat quality (CHA) that may have had an important role in the phenotypic differentiation of these breeds. Further studies will expand our knowledge on the molecular basis of adaptation of cattle to tropical conditions and molecular process associated with meat quality traits.
