PIT1 gene polymorphism in Pietrain and Large White pigs after divergent selection.
We examined the polymorphisms in the PIT1 gene of 103 pigs and compared their frequencies in the maternal and paternal lineages of the Pietrain and Large White breeds, which have undergone divergent selection for over 30 years. DNA samples extracted from the blood of these animals were amplified by PCR and genotyped by RFLP, using the restriction enzyme RsaI. The data were analyzed with the chi...
متن کاملObese gene polymorphism in Pietrain and Large White pigs after a divergent selection.
The aim of the present study was to identify polymorphisms in the leptin gene of 112 pigs and compare the maternal and paternal lineage of Pietrain and Large White breeds that underwent a divergent selection for over 30 years. DNA samples extracted from the blood of these animals were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and genotyped by restriction fragment length polymorphism using the rest...
متن کاملFat mobilization in Pietrain and Large White pigs.
I. Two experiments were done with Pietrain and Large White pigs (about 50 kg body-weight) to determine whether fat mobilization is enhanced in the stress-sensitive Pietrains (which also produce pale, soft, exudative (PSE) meat). 2. In Expt I, plasma glucose and insulin concentrations and free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations and composition were measured in five Pietrains and five Large Whites a...
متن کاملChanges in Reproductive Traits of Large White Pigs after Estrogen Receptor Gene-based Selection in Slovakia: Preliminary Results*
We investigated the effect of ESR gene-based selection on an improvement of litter size in the herds in real (nonexperimental) conditions. The pigs were selected for three years. In the tested population the pigs were mated according to a breeding scheme where the individuals with at least one ESR-B allele were preferred in the selection. In the control group (CP; n = 140) the pigs were mated j...
متن کاملMuscle Fibre Characteristics and Physico-Chemical Parameters of m. semimembranosus from Pu3awska, Polish Large White and Pietrain Pigs**
The aim of the studywas to comparemuscle fibre parameters and quality ofm. semimembranosus in pigs. The experiment was conducted with 18 Pu3awska pigs, 24 Polish Large White (PLW) pigs, and 24 Pietrain pigs slaughtered at 105 kg bodyweight. The results obtained indicate that the breed of pigs has a significant effect on both muscle fibre composition and vascularization. The muscles of Pu3awska ...
