Abstract:
:Myopalladin (MYPN) and titin (TTN) play key roles in skeletal muscle structural organisation and for this reason they may be functional candidates for meat production traits in pigs. We analysed by PCR-RFLP two polymorphisms previously identified and described in the 3'UTR of MYPN and TTN genes in a group of Italian Large White (ILW) and Italian Duroc (ID) pigs with extreme divergent estimated breeding values for some production traits. Significant allele frequency differences were observed for lean cuts (LC) at the MYPN locus in ILW breed and for visible intermuscular fat (VIF) at MYPN and TTN loci in ID breed. Moreover, association analysis between the two genes and some production traits (average daily gain, LC, backfat thickness, ham weight, feed conversion ratio and VIF) was performed in a sample of 409 ILW and 381 ID pigs. On the whole, the results showed significant effects of both genes on some of the considered traits in ID breed, and for TTN gene in ILW animals. These results indicate that both genes can be considered as candidates for meat and carcass traits in ID pigs.
