Abstract
“Jallikattu” is a bull-baiting or bull taming sport and one of the oldest living ancient sports seen in the modern era of Tamil Nadu, which brings out the inherent qualities of the bulls, favouring their selection. Considering the facts of inherent sporting potentiality possessed by our native germplasm, their cultural association with the bravery of people and limited work on sporting performance traits in cattle, the present investigation has been planned to study the physical conformation, sporting performance, aggressiveness and molecular association of myostatin gene with sporting traits in indigenous cattle breeds.
