Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis in a Meishan x Göttingen cross population.

In order to locate the genetic regions in the swine genome that are responsible for economically important traits, a resource population has been constructed by mating two female Meishan pigs with a male Göttingen miniature pig. In subsequent generations, 265 F2 offspring were produced from two F1 males and 19 F1 females. The F2 offspring were scored for eight traits including growth rate, teat number, vertebra number and backfat thickness, and genotyped for 318 genetic markers spanning the swine genome. Least-square analysis revealed quantitative trait loci (QTL) effects for vertebra number on chromosomes 1 and 2; for teat number on chromosomes 1 and 7; for birth weight on chromosome 1; for average daily gain between 4 and 13 weeks of age on chromosomes 9 and 10; for backfat thickness on chromosome 7; and for backskin thickness on chromosome 3.[1]
