Correlation between H-FABP mRNA expression and IMF content in TYC and HTBC

Tissue TYC HTBC
Cardiac muscle −0.588* −0.667*
Chest muscle −0.649* −0.646*
Leg muscle −0.441 −0.608*

H-FABP heart-type fatty acid binding protein, TYC Three-yellow chicken, HTBC Hetian-black chicken

The correlation analysis between mRNA expression (2−ΔCt) and IMF content was assessed by Pearson’s correlation coefficient at slaughter time using the SPSS 17.0 software package, * P < 0.05
