Genetic Effects of H-FABP Gene on Some Pig Economic Important Traits in a F₂ Resource Pop

<正> The F2 design was used in construction of the pig resource population, and 14 economic important traits of 119 F2 offspring were measured. The polymorphisms of heart fatty acid binding protein gene (H-FABP) were detected by PCR-RFLP. The effects of different H-FABP genotypes were analyzed by a fixed model. The results showed that, the carcass composition traits were affected by H-FABP gene significantly, backfat thickness alive, carcass backfat thickness between 6th - 7th rib, and average carcass backfat thickness, of different H-FABP genotypes were significantly different (P<0. 05). The dominant effects on the traits demonstrated that the gene affected the carcass composition traits overdominantly. The results also showed that H-FABP gene affected the growth traits and meat quality traits, and the pH, of different H-FABP genotypes was significantly different.
