Myoglobin (Mb) is a cytoplasmic hemoprotein involved in oxygen transport and storage, and plays a critical role in skeletal muscle development. Nevertheless, there are few academic publications focused on the Mb associated with pigeons growth traits. Hence, the SNPs in the\n                    <jats:italic>Mb<\/jats:italic>\n                    gene were investigated and their association with growth\u2010related traits in pigeons was evaluated in this study. A total of 6 SNPs of\n                    <jats:italic>Mb<\/jats:italic>\n                    were identified in 260 pigeons. Among these, three SNPs (g.174230157G&gt;C, g.174230158T&gt;C and g.174230175T&gt;G) were located in intron 1, one SNP was located in the exon 2 (g.174230233C&gt;T), two SNPs (g.174231334T&gt;C and g.174231495T&gt;C) were located in 3\u2032\u2010untranslated region (3\u2032\u2010UTR) of the pigeon\n                    <jats:italic>Mb<\/jats:italic>\n                    gene. The results of the potential structural effects of these SNPs on mRNA analyzing via RNAfold software showed that the g.174230233C&gt;T and g.174231334T&gt;C mutations had unchanged on mRNA secondary structure, whereas the g.174231495T&gt;C mutation is predicted to result in increased free energy. Genetic analysis indicated that all 6 SNPs conformed to Hardy\u2013Weinberg equilibrium and with observed heterozygosity (Ho) exceeding expected heterozygosity (\n                    <jats:italic>H<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>e<\/jats:sub>\n                    ). Additionally, g.174230233C&gt;T, g.174231334T&gt;C and g.174231495T&gt;C showed moderate polymorphism. Association analysis revealed significant correlations between g.174231334T&gt;C and g.174231495T&gt;C and shank circumference, whereas the remaining 4 SNPs showed no significant associations with growth traits. However, haplotype analysis showed no significant relationships with growth traits (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&gt;\u20090.05). These findings reveal novel\n                    <jats:italic>Mb<\/jats:italic>\n                    gene markers associated with pigeon growth traits and offer a molecular foundation for genetic
