Porcine skeletal muscle differentially expressed gene CMYA1: isolation, characterization, mapping, expression and association analysis with carcass traitsAnimal Genetics - Tập 40 Số 3 - Trang 255-261 - 2009

SummaryTo investigate the differences in gene expression between some obese and
lean pig breeds, differential display of mRNA was employed in our previous
research. One differentially expressed EST (BI596262) was further identified as
the porcine cardiomyopathy associated 1 (CMYA1) gene because of its homology to
the human CMYA1 gene. The full‐length DNA of the porcine CMYA1 gene encompasses

The porcine fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene is associated with fat deposition in Italian Duroc pigsAnimal Genetics - Tập 40 Số 1 - Trang 90-93 - 2009

SummaryIn humans, common variants in the fat mass and obesity associated (FTO)
gene are associated with body mass index and obesity. Here we sequenced exon 4,
parts of introns 3 and 4 and two portions of the 3′‐untranslated region of the
porcine FTO gene in a panel of nine pigs of different breeds and identified
three SNPs. Allele frequencies of the g.276T>G (AM931150) mutation were studied

Inbreeding in the Thoroughbred horseAnimal Genetics - Tập 43 Số 3 - Trang 340-342 - 2012

SummaryChanges in the inbreeding coefficient, F, in the Thoroughbred horse over
the past 45 years have been investigated by genotyping 467 Thoroughbred horses
(born between 1961 and 2006) using the Illumina Equine SNP50 bead chip, which
comprises 54 602 SNPs uniformly distributed across the equine genome. The
Spearman rank correlation coefficient, r, between the year of birth and F was
estimated. ... hiện toàn bộ
Genetic relationship amongst the major non‐coding regions of mitochondrial DNAs in wild boars and several breeds of domesticated pigsAnimal Genetics - Tập 32 Số 3 - Trang 139-147 - 2001

We completed phylogenetic analysis of the major non‐coding region of the
mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from 159 animals of eight Euro‐American and six East
Asian domesticated pig breeds and 164 Japanese and five European wild boars. A
total of 62 mtDNA haplotypes were detected. Alignment of these regions revealed
nucleotide variations (including gaps) at 73 positions, including 58 sites with
transitio... hiện toàn bộ

Differentially expressed transcripts in adipose tissue between Korean native pig and Yorkshire breedsAnimal Genetics - Tập 40 Số 1 - Trang 115-118 - 2009
Jin-Kyoo Moon, K.‐S. Kim, J.‐J. Kim, Byung Hyune Choi, B.‐W. Cho, Tae Hun Kim, Cheuk Kwong Lee
SummaryWe measured and compared the transcripts of adipose tissue from Korean
native pig (KNP) and Yorkshire (YS) breeds to investigate breed‐specific
transcription changes. We employed both the Affymetrix porcine genome array and
quantitative reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR). We found
eight genes showing significant changes between the two breeds. Based on a
literature re... hiện toàn bộ
Mapping the four‐horned locus and testing the polled locus in three Chinese sheep breedsAnimal Genetics - Tập 47 Số 5 - Trang 623-627 - 2016

SummaryFour‐horned sheep are an ideal animal model for illuminating the genetic
basis of horn development. The objective of this study was to locate the genetic
region responsible for the four‐horned phenotype and to verify a previously
reported polled locus in three Chinese breeds. A genome‐wide association study
(GWAS) was performed using 34 two‐horned and 32 four‐horned sheep from three

SummaryThe identification of genetic variations underlying desired phenotypes is
one of the main challenges of current livestock genetic research.
High‐throughput transcriptome sequencing has been recognized as an efficient way
to unravel the rich genetic variants across various species. The Lanzhou
Fat‐Tail sheep is an endangered sheep breed in China with a notable feature of
an exaggerated fat t... hiện toàn bộ
