Identification of key genes in bovine muscle development by co-expression analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Skeletal muscle is not only an important tissue involved in exercise and metabolism, but also an important part of livestock and poultry meat products. Its growth and development determines the output and quality of meat to a certain extent, and has an important impact on the economic benefits of animal husbandry. Skeletal muscle development is a complex regulatory network process, and its molecular mechanism needs to be further studied.

Method

We used a weighted co-expression network (WGCNA) and single gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to study the RNA-seq data set of bovine tissue differential expression analysis, and the core genes and functional enrichment pathways closely related to muscle tissue development were screened. Finally, the accuracy of the analy
