technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a SNP molecular marker which is located on the No. 14 chromosome of pigs and is related to the number of stillbirths and the healthy litter rate of sows and its application. Background technique
[0002] The reproductive performance of sows directly affects the economic benefits of breeding enterprises, and the number of stillbirths and healthy litter rate, as important economic traits of sows, is an important indicator to measure the reproductive performance of sows. As we all know, the number of stillbirths is negatively correlated with the healthy birth rate, the lower the number of stillbirths, the higher the healthy birth rate. Therefore, reducing the number of stillborn sows and improving the healthy litter rate of sows has always been the main goal of breeders. However, the number of stillbirths and the rate of healthy babies are traits of low heritability and are easily affected by environmental factors. Therefore, the...
