Polymorphisms of porcine ob exon 1 and exon 2 among different breeds including Landrace, Duroc, Min pig, Yorkshire pig, double-muscled Yorkshire, Sanjiang pig, wild boar and cross bred pig were analyzed by PCR-SSCP in...Polymorphisms of porcine ob exon 1 and exon 2 among different breeds including Landrace, Duroc, Min pig, Yorkshire pig, double-muscled Yorkshire, Sanjiang pig, wild boar and cross bred pig were analyzed by PCR-SSCP in the current study. Three pairs of primers according to the ob cDNA sequence obtained from GenBank database were designed to amplify the first two exons, which were then genotyped by SSCP. The T to C transversion was found in exon 2, which resulted in 3 genotypes named AA, AB and BB, respectively in these different porcine breeds. There was only genotype of BB in the Min pig, while no allele B was detected in double-muscled Yorkshire, and the 3 genotypes all existed in other breeds. There was significant difference on the genotype frequencies in various breeds. There was a trend that the frequency of allele A was positively associated with muscle ratio distribution on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was linked to the selected direction. So the allele A could be used as a selective marker of high muscle ratio in pig breeding.展开更多

The correlation between polymorphism of OB gene and weight of Tan sheep was analyzed. The results indicated that there was a CT point mutation at locus 253 in exon 3 region of OB gene, but no mutant homozygote was found. The results of chi-square test showed that the frequency of BB and AB genotypes was con- sistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. AB genotype was the dominant genotype controlling weight of Tan sheep with the genotype frequency of 0.05. According to the results of correlation analysis, the mutation exerted significant effects on weight of Tan sheep at 3-month-old and 6-month-old (P 〈 0.05). Moreover, interac- tions between ~enotvoe and ~ender had no sianificant effect on weight of Tan sheen ( P 〉 0.05 ).展开更多
