Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms of the exon7, 8, 9 of the porcine IGF2 gene were tested using PCR-SSCP. Genetic effects of the IGF2 gene on birth weight, weaning weight, six-month weight and six-month backfat thickness were analyzed. On the basis of the published DNA sequence (AY044828) of the porcine IGF2 gene, three pairs of primers were designed, and one polymorphism, three genotypes were found in the PCR...
