Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)1 and IGF2 genes were reported to be associated with growth performance in pigs. This study investigated the effects of a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in IGF1 (IGF1-G201C) and two SNPs in IGF2 intron 8 (IGF2-in8-C27222G and IGF2―in8-C27322G) on the growth performance of centrally tested Duroc boars in Taiwan. In total, 735 Duroc boars were subjected to performance...
The mutation at 307 bp (M307) of the alpha (1,2) fucosyltransferase gene has been proposed as being a marker for selection of E. coli F18 adhesion-resistant pigs. Nonetheless, exactly how this mutation affects pigs' growth performance remains unclear. This study investigated genotypic frequencies and the effect of M307 and the ryanodine receptor (RYR1) on the growth performance of two major Western...
