Abstract excerpt
Swine leucocyte antigen (SLA) is a highly polymorphic multigene family that plays a crucial role in swine immune response and disease resistance. Here, we identified polymorphisms and gene variations of SLA-DQA exon 2 using polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and DNA sequencing analysis, and further investigated the correlation between the polymorphisms and piglet...
