Vztah SNP v genu pro leptin a parametrů vnitřního prostředí býků Českého strakatého skotu

There is a lot of factors which has impact on quality of bovine meat. The aim of this thesis was to examine correlations between chosen SNPs in leptin gene and specific hormones and metabolites, which have influence on the meat quality and also complete health condition of beef. There were 99 bulls of Czech Fleckvieh cattle used for this study. The examined parameters were insulin, glucose, cholesterol, triacylglycerol, non-esterified fatty acids and betahydroxybutiric acid. There was shown no statistically signifiant correlation between leptin gene polymorfisms and observed parameters. Only proved correlation was between leptin and cholesterol and glucose. There is lot of other factors involved in changes of amount of these substances though
