New quality markers for racing performance!
We are happy to announce we are offering 3 new proven markers for racing performance!
New magnetoreception gene Cryptochrome 1 (CRY1) influences racing performance of racing pigeons
A new gene has been found with a statistical association with good competition performance. In addition to the already well-known genes LDHA and DRD4, there is thus a new relevant marker that can help breeding strategies to try to breed better performing pigeons.
ARMANDO tested CTCT! GENE DOPAMINE RECEPTOR TYPE 4 (DRD4) HAS SCIENTIFIC PROVEN INFLUENCE ON THE RACING PERFORMANCE OF PIGEONS
A new gene has been discovered in 2015 with a very clear influence on racing capability nl. a dopamine receptor gene. Dopamine receptors are found in the brain and have the function to transfer signals of the neurotransmitter dopamine in specific zones inside the brain.
THE LDHA GENE; THE NEXT STEP IN GENETICS FOR TOP PERFORMANCES AND SPEED IN RACING PIGEONS
LDHA is the gene that stands for a lactate dehydrogenase enzyme in racing pigeons. This is an enzyme that is responsible for both the synthesis as recycling of lactate (out of pyruvate) in the muscles.
