The diploid chromosome 2n=78, chromosomal morphology are very similar and sex chromosome type are ZZ (♂) and ZW(♀) in four egg-type fowl breeds. According to standard of Leven in 1964, the euchromosome and sex chromosome of four breeds are measured and compared in relative length arm ratio and centromere index of each chromosome including all the microchromosome. The morphology of these chromosome is described as follows: pair1, 2, 8 and ZW are metacentric, pair 4 and 6 are submetacentric, and the rest is telocentric.展开更多

Three pairs of primers according to the ob cDNA sequence obtained from GenBank database were designed to amplify the first two exons, which were then genotyped by SSCP. The T to C transversion was found in exon 2, which resulted in 3 genotypes named AA, AB and BB, respectively in these different porcine breeds. There was only genotype of BB in the Min pig, while no allele B was detected in double-muscled Yorkshire, and the 3 genotypes all existed in other breeds. There was significant difference on the genotype frequencies in various breeds. There was a trend that the frequency of allele A was positively associated with muscle ratio distribution on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was linked to the selected direction. So the allele A could be used as a selective marker of high muscle ratio in pig breeding.展开更多
