Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for identifying pig body length and / or body height and a pair of special primers, belonging to the field of biotechnology. Background technique
[0002] Pig body size has always been an important part of pig breeding goals. Body size is not only closely related to growth rate and meat production, but also has a greater impact on mating, so its breeding value is very high. However, since the body length and body height can only be measured after the animal grows up, on the one hand, the breeding cost is increased, and on the other hand, the generation interval is lengthened, and the genetic progress is slow. The rapid development of molecular biotechnology and the construction of pig genetic linkage maps have provided a research basis for breeding around quantitative traits such as body length and body height. On the other hand, since pigs are an important model animal for human research, finding genes that affect pig ...
