Meat quality involves traits that have received considerable attention in genetic breeding programs in recent years. The genomic selection using single nucleotides polymorphisms (SNPs) markers is a strong tool to obtain desired phenotypes for economically important traits, including those which are perceived by consumers. Trait such as back and intramuscular fat contribute to the juiciness, flavor and tenderness of beef, all of which directly influences consumer choice. Over the years, many studies have been conducted resulting in multiple quantitative trait locus (QTLs) candidates for carcass and meat quality traits, and an extensive database has been created. Traits such as marbling score, intramuscular fat and subcutaneous fat thickness (which includes back fat and rump fat thickness), have been associated with 2448, 192 and 1044 QTLs, respectively. Although genetic analyses are costly and laborious, the use of molecular markers help to increase favorable genes in the population. Their advance is becoming more concrete and acceptable as a measure of economic importance. 000145648 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EUR/FEDER/INTERREG-V-A-POCTEFA-2014-2020-EFA144-16-DIETAPYR2 000145648 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000145648 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000145648 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-6955-355X$$aOlleta, José Luis$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145648 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-2713-5939$$aResconi, Virginia Celia$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145648 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-8991-325X$$aSantolaria, Pilar$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145648 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-8180-8663$$aCampo, María del Mar$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000145648 7102_ $$12008$$2700$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
