Candidate gene markers for litter size in different German pig lines.

Journal of animal science - 1 Oct 2001

Drogemuller C, Hamann H, Distl O

Abstract excerpt

Three diallelic RFLP markers at candidate gene loci for litter size, the estrogen receptor (ESR) gene, the prolactin receptor (PRLR) gene, and the retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) gene, were evaluated for their association with the number of piglets born alive in different German pig lines. Genotyping was performed on boars and sows belonging to three different genetic groups from a single farm. Information on...
