摘要
[ Objective] To analyze the FUT1 gene polymorphism of Hebao pigs and its relationship with litter size and provide reference for conservation, breeding, development and utilization of Hebao pigs. [Method] The DNA was extracted from Hebao pigs' ears, and the polymorphism of FUT1 gene was detected by PCR-RFLP. Then the relationship between genotype and litter size was analyzed. [Result] The FUT1 gene had three kinds of genotypes, GG, AG and AA, as indicated by digestion with Hin6 I. The genotype frequency of AA was 0.115 9, and the allele frequency of A was 0.275 4. The average litter size from the 1 = parity to the 5th parity was higher in the individuals with the genotype AA than in those with the genotype AG or GG. And this difference was significant in average litter size of the 3th parity and the 4th parity ( P 〈 0.05). [ Conclusion ] The FUT-1 gene is polymorphic in Hebao pigs, and the allele frequency is similar to that of foreign Duroc pigs but greatly different from that of other breeds such as Landrace, Large white, and Landrace x Large white pigs. The genotype AA is a prevalent genotype for litter trait.
