Linkage and QTL mapping for Sus scrofa chromosome
Linkage and QTL maps of Sus scrofa chromosome 17 (SSC17) were analysed with five markers and in three F2 families based on Wild Boar (W), Meishan (M) and Pietrain (P) crosses. The maps were similar across the three families and agree well with published maps. In the M · P family, new quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for growth and fat deposition were located in the vicinity of GHRH, whereas in th...
متن کاملChromosome restriction enzyme digestion in domestic pig (Sus scrofa) constitutive heterochromatin arrangement.
The bimodal karyotype of pig appears to contain two types of constitutive heterochromatin, reflecting different satellite DNA families: GC-rich heterochromatin located mainly in the centromeric regions of the biarmed chromosomes, and less-GC-rich heterochromatin in the centromeric regions of the one-armed chromosomes. In order to better discriminate this constitutive heterochromatin, we treated...
متن کاملDifferential vocal responses to physical and mental stressors in domestic pigs (Sus scrofa)
Vocalisation can indicate an animal’s emotional and/or physiological state. Thus, the detailed analysis of acoustic signals might provide a useful non-invasive method of assessing the welfare status of animals. Focussing on vocal expressions of distress, the present study examined vocal responses of 10-week-old domestic pigs during a classical conditioning paradigm, where a neutral light stimul...
متن کاملChromosome number polymorphism in a litter of European wild boar (Sus scrofa scrofa L.)
Populations of wild boar (Sus scrofa scrofa L.) of Central Europe frequently demonstrate polymorphism in chromosome number. This phenomenon is caused by chromosome rearrangements of the centric fusion type. The presence of Robertsonian translocations in the wild boar population may lead to one of three different karyotypes: 2n=36, 2n=37 and 2n=38. The aim of the study was to analyse the karyoty...
متن کاملThe contribution of social effects to heritable variation in finishing traits of domestic pigs (Sus scrofa).
Social interactions among individuals are ubiquitous both in animals and in plants, and in natural as well as domestic populations. These interactions affect both the direction and the magnitude of responses to selection and are a key factor in evolutionary success of species and in the design of breeding schemes in agriculture. At present, however, very little is known of the contribution of s...
