Quantitative trait loci for litter size and prenatal loss in a White Duroc x Chinese Erhualian resource population.

Abstract:

:To detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) for litter size related traits, the total number of born piglets (TNB), the number of born alive piglets (NBA), the number of stillborn piglets (NSB) and the number of mummies (NM) at the first parity were recorded in 299 F(2) sows in a White Duroc x Chinese Erhualian intercross resource population. A whole genome scan was performed with 183 microsatellites distributed across 19 porcine chromosomes in the resource population, and the QTL analysis was performed with a least-squares method. A 5% genome-wide significant QTL was detected at 88 cM on pig chromosome (SSC) 15 for NBA, which also showed suggestive effect on TNB. In addition, four suggestive QTL were detected on SSC 6, 7, 8 and 15 for TNB, NBA or NSB. Two of the five QTL detected showed accordance with previous reports. No QTL was found for NM.
