Popis: A study was conducted to assess the impact of heat stress on various carcass traits, meat quality variables and gene expression patterns which governs meat quality in indigenous female Kodi Aadu breed. The study was conducted for 45 days in climate chamber with 12 animals randomly allocated into two groups of six animals each, KC (n = 6; Female; Control), KHS (n = 6; Female; heat stress). Majority of the major carcass traits and meat quality variables remained intact between KC and KHS groups. The myostatin (MSTN), calpain 1 (CAPN1) and Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) mRNA expression patterns were significantly (P
