[Genetic linkage between Atrn gene and microsatellite markers and the effects to some economic traits in pigs].

The genetic polymorphisms of Atrn gene, which were from 174 F0-F5 Danish resource family pigs (DRF) that has undergone five successive generations of inbreeding and 129 F9 Hunan yellow pigs (HY) that were developed by crossbreeding, were tested by PCR-RFLP method, and the effects to carcass and growth traits were also analyzed. The results showed that: (1) Three genotypes of AA, AB, BB were detected by Taq I-RFLP in the two pig breeds, and highly significant differences (P<0.01) in genotype frequencies were found between the two breeds; (2) Based on the linkage analysis of resource family pigs using CRI-MAP V2.
