  1. IMF content in different parts of muscles among sheep with the same age. ** indicates that means were highly significantly different (P < 0.01); * indicates significant differences (P < 0.05); different lowercase letters indicate that means differ significantly (P < 0.05) between the same muscles groups of sheep of different ages; different capital letters indicate that means were highly significantly different (P < 0.01) between the same muscles groups of sheep of different ages
