[0002] The reproductive performance of Large White sows is a key factor affecting the economic benefits of pig farming. However, the reproductive performance of Large White sows is a quantitative trait controlled by minor genes with low heritability, and the effect of breeding improvement based on conventional methods is not significant. With the development of molecular biology techniques, technologies such as high-density SNP chips, genotyping, and genome-wide association analysis have been rapidly developed and applied, entering the molecular breeding process from phenotypic breeding for important traits and associated genes, achieving continuous genetic improvement of livestock populations and continuous improvement of comprehensive performance. Single nucleotide polymorphism sites (SNPs) refer to genetic markers formed by single nucleotide variations on the genome, which are related to animal growth, reproduction, and diseases. Therefore, mining SNPs related to the reproductive performance of sows is of great significance for improving the reproductive performance of sows. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The inventors of the present application have shown through a large amount of research that the BAMBI gene may be related to the litter size of pigs. SNPs of the BAMBI gene were screened and genotyped by pooled DNA sequencing combined with multiplex PCR, and an association analysis was performed with the reproductive performance of Large White sows. It was found that both of the 2 SNPs screened in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene are related to the reproductive performance of Large White sows, which can provide reference data for molecular marker-assisted breeding of Large White sows.

[0016] Determining the reproductive performance of the Large White sow according to the genotype.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0018] In the embodiment of the present application, SNPs of the BAMBI gene are screened and genotyped by the method of pooled DNA sequencing combined with multiplex PCR, and correlation analysis is performed with the reproductive performance of Large White sows. It is found that the 2 SNPs screened in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene are both related to the reproductive performance of Large White sows, which can provide reference data for molecular marker-assisted breeding of Large White sows.
[0019] In the embodiment of the present application, two synonymous mutation sites, g.390T>C and g.492C>T, are screened in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene. The two loci g.390T>C and g.492C>T are in strong linkage disequilibrium (R 2 = 0.66) and conform to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium state (P>0.05) in the Large White sow population. mRNA secondary structure prediction shows that the g.390T>C and g.492C>T mutations in the BAMBI gene change the mRNA secondary structure and free energy of the BAMBI gene. Correlation analysis shows that g.390T>C is significantly correlated with the number of nipples, total number of piglets born, number of live piglets born, and number of healthy piglets of Large White sows (P < 0.05), and is extremely significantly correlated with the litter weight at birth of Large White sows (P < 0.01); g.492C>T is significantly correlated with the number of nipples, maternal index, reproductive index, total number of piglets born, number of live piglets born, number of mummies, and corrected litter weight at 21 days of Large White sows (P < 0.05), and is extremely significantly correlated with the number of healthy piglets of Large White sows (P < 0.01).

[0043] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific examples. The following examples are only for explaining the present invention and do not constitute a limitation to the present invention. The test samples and test procedures used in the following examples include the following content (if the specific experimental conditions are not specified in the examples, they are usually in accordance with conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by reagent companies; the reagents, consumables, etc. used in the following examples can be obtained from commercial sources without special instructions).
[0044] 1. Experimental materials
[0045] The experimental pig population (316 Large White sows) all came from Tiankang Animal Husbandry Breeding Farm in Wujiaqu, Xinjiang. All the test pigs were in good health, had similar weights, and consistent feeding and management conditions. Ear tissue samples were collected for the extraction of tissue DNA. The relevant reproductive data of 316 Large White sows were sorted out and reserved for future use.
[0046] 2. Extraction of genomic DNA from pig population
[0047] The extraction of genomic DNA referred to the instruction manual of the Blood, Cell and Tissue DNA Extraction Kit of Tiangen Biochemical Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. After DNA extraction, the DNA concentration was measured using Nano 2000. Samples with a 260 / 280 value between 1.7 and 2.0 and a concentration greater than 50 ng / μL were selected and stored in a -20°C refrigerator for subsequent use.
[0048] 3. Primer design
[0049] According to the full-length sequence of the pig BAMBI (Ensembl ID: ENSSSCG00000011014) gene provided by the Ensembl database, the Primer Primier 5.0 software was used to design PCR amplification primers. The primer sequences are shown in Table 1. The primers were synthesized by Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd.

[0051]
[0052] 3. Pooled library construction and PCR product sequencing
[0053] Randomly select 40 DNA samples, 10 μL for each sample to construct a DNA pool and perform PCR amplification. The PCR reaction program: pre-denaturation at 94°C for 5 min; denaturation at 94°C for 30 s, annealing at 58°C for 30 s, extension at 72°C for 30 s, for a total of 35 cycles. After detection by 1.2% agarose gel electrophoresis and the size of the target band, it was sent to Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd. for sequencing. The sequencing results were analyzed by chromas 2.6.5 software to screen for potential SNPs sites of the BAMBI gene.
[0054] 4. Polymorphic Locus Genotyping
[0055] After screening out the potential SNPs loci of the BAMBI gene, Shijiazhuang Borui Biotechnology Co., Ltd. was commissioned to perform genotyping on the DNA samples of 316 Large White sows using targeted sequencing genotyping technology based on multiplex PCR.
[0056] 5. Data Acquisition
[0057] The birth weight and number of nipples of the test pig population were recorded. The estimated breeding value (EBV) was evaluated by the pig farm based on the phenotypic and pedigree information of each performance, and the best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) was established. The Maternal line index (MLI) and Swine Productivity Index (SPP) were calculated according to the EBV of each phenotypic data by the following (Formula 1-2). The reproductive performances of the test pig population in the 2nd to 6th parities were also statistically analyzed, including total number of born piglets, number of live born piglets, number of stillborn piglets, number of mummified piglets, number of healthy piglets, birth litter weight, and corrected 21-day litter weight.
[0058] Maternal line index (MLI) = 100 + 120.0×BVW2E + 8.8×BVLWT - 24.0×BVBF - 10.0×BVDAYS Reproductive index (SPP) = 100 + 120.0×BVNBA - 20.0×BVW2E + 8.8×BVLWT
[0059] In the formula, BVBF is the breeding value of corrected 100Kg backfat thickness, VDAYS is the breeding value of days to 100Kg body weight, BVNBA is the breeding value of number of live born piglets per litter, BVW2E is the breeding value of days from weaning to re-breeding, and BVLWT is the breeding value of corrected 21-day litter weight.
[0060] 6. Data Statistics and Analysis
[0061] The genotype frequency, gene frequency, observed heterozygosity (Ho), expected heterozygosity (He), effective number of alleles (Ne), polymorphism information content (PIC), and χ 2 value of each polymorphic locus were calculated according to the following (Formula 3-7), and the Hardy-Weinberg test was performed.
[17] The online software (RNA fold webserver) was used to predict the secondary structure of mRNA before and after BAMBI gene mutation, and Haploview 4.2 was used for linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis. The general linear model (GLM) of SPSS 26.0 was used to analyze the differences in each reproductive trait among different genotypes. The results were expressed as "mean ± standard deviation", and P<0.05 was used as the criterion for judging significant differences. The correlation analysis model between each reproductive performance and genotype is shown in Equation 8.

[0071] 7. Results and Analysis
[0072] (1) PCR amplification of BAMBI gene and screening of SNPs sites
[0073] After the PCR products were identified by 1.2% agarose gel electrophoresis, the band sizes were consistent with the target band (523 bp) Figure 1 ), and they could be used for subsequent sequencing analysis. The pooled sequencing chromatograms were analyzed using Chromas software Figure 2 and Table 2). Two synonymous mutation sites were screened in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene, that is, single-base mutations of T>C at the 40058390th base and C>T at the 40058492th base on Sus scrofa chromosome 10, named g.390T>C and g.492C>T respectively, both of which are synonymous mutations and do not change the encoded amino acids.

[0076] The obtained BAMBI gene SNPs: g.390T>C and g.492C>T are located in the nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO.3 - 6 (i.e., the DNA products amplified by the above primers) as follows:
[0077] ctctttgtttctgctccttcctataggacaaggcaacaggtatcagcctgacggtagcagaaacctcatcaccaaagtgcaggagctgacttcctccaaagagttgtggttccgggcggcagtgatcgctgttcccatcgccggagggctgatcctggtgttgctgatcatgctggccctgaggatgctgcggagcgagaacaagaggctgcaggaccagcggcagcagatgctgtcccgtttgcactacagcttccacggacgccactccaaaaaggggcaggttgccaagttggacttggagtgcatggtgcctgtgag T / C ggccacgagaactgctgtctgacgtgcgataagatgaggcaagctgacctcagccacgaccggctcctctcgctggtgcactggggcgtgtacagcggccg C / T gggaggctggagttcgtatgatggagactccccggaaccccacttccgggaccctcgaaggcccttgagttctgctggacaggagcactttatccgaag;
[0078] Among them, there is a polymorphism of g.390T>C at the base of the first underlined position, and a polymorphism of g.492C>T at the base of the second underlined position. When the first SNP is T and the second SNP is C, the nucleotide sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.3. When the first SNP is C and the second SNP is C, the nucleotide sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.4. When the first SNP is C and the second SNP is T, the nucleotide sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.5. When the first SNP is T and the second SNP is T, the nucleotide sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.6. (2) BAMBI gene genotyping results and population genetics analysis
[0079] Genetic structure analysis showed (Tables 3 and 4): For the two SNPs of the BAMBI gene, three genotypes of TT, CT, and CC were detected in the Large White sow population. Among the three genotypes in the Large White sow population, the heterozygous type > wild homozygous type > mutant homozygous type. Among them, T is the dominant gene at the g.390T>C locus, and C is the dominant gene at the g.492C>T locus; the two SNPs were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in the Large White pig population (P>0.05); the two SNPs were moderately polymorphic in the Large White pig population (0.25<PIC<0.5), with relatively high polymorphic information content and large genetic variation, and more selection results could be obtained, indicating that the uniformity of these loci has the potential to be further improved as the sample size increases.

[0082] Table 4 Population genetics analysis of BAMBI gene SNPs
[0083]
[0084] (3) Linkage disequilibrium and haplotype analysis of BAMBI gene SNPs
[0085] Further linkage disequilibrium analysis was performed on the two SNPs (g.390T>C and g.492C>T) in the BAMBI gene. As Figure 3 can be seen, D` = 1 and R 2 = 0.66 > 0.33 for the two loci of g.390T>C and g.492C>T, indicating that g.390T>C and g.492C>T are in a strong linkage disequilibrium state in the Large White sow population.
[0086] (4) Prediction of the secondary structure of the BAMBI gene
[0087] Prediction of the secondary structure of BAMBI gene mRNA showed that after the g.390T>C mutation occurred in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene, its mRNA secondary structure did not change, but its minimum free energy was greater than that of the wild type ( Figure 4 B); after the g.492C>T mutation occurred in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene, its mRNA secondary structure changed, and its minimum free energy was less than that of the wild type ( Figure 4 C). After the g.390T>C and g.492C>T mutations occurred in the CDS region of the BAMBI gene, both would cause changes in the minimum free energy of the BAMBI gene, which might affect the stability of the BAMBI gene mRNA secondary structure and the results and quantities of protein products, and further affect its phenotype.
[0088] (5) Effects of polymorphic sites of the BAMBI gene on the reproductive performance of Large White sows
[0089] For the g.390T>C locus of the BAMBI gene, the TC genotype was significantly higher than the TT genotype in the number of nipples of Large White sows (P < 0.05). For the g.492C>T locus of the BAMBI gene, the TC and TT genotypes were significantly higher than the CC genotype in the number of nipples of Large White sows (P < 0.05), and the TT genotype was significantly higher than the CC genotype in the maternal index and reproductive index (P < 0.05) (Table 5).
[0090] Table 5 Effects of BAMBI on the reproductive performance of Large White sows
[0091]
[0092] (6) Effects of polymorphic sites of the BAMBI gene on the litter performance of parity Large White sows
[0093] For the g.390T>C locus of the BAMBI gene, the CC genotype was significantly higher than the TT genotype in the total number of piglets born and the number of live piglets born in parity Large White sows (P < 0.05), the CC and TC genotypes were significantly higher than the TT genotype in the number of healthy piglets (P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference among genotypes in the number of stillborn piglets and mummies; for the g.492C>T locus of the BAMBI gene, the CT and TT genotypes were significantly higher than the CC genotype in the total number of piglets born in parity Large White pigs (P < 0.05), the CT genotype was significantly higher than the CC genotype in the number of live piglets born (P < 0.05), the CT genotype was extremely significantly higher than the CC genotype in the number of healthy piglets (P < 0.01), the CT genotype was significantly less than the TT genotype in the number of mummies (P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference among genotypes in the number of stillborn piglets (Table 6).

[0095]
[0096] (7) Effect of BAMBI gene polymorphic loci on the reproductive performance of parity Large White sows
[0097] For the g.390T>C locus of the BAMBI gene, the CC genotype was extremely significantly higher than the TT genotype in the litter weight at birth of parity Large White sows (P < 0.01), and there was no significant difference among genotypes in the corrected litter weight at 21 days of age. For the g.492C>T locus of the BAMBI gene, the CC genotype was significantly higher than the CT genotype in the corrected litter weight at 21 days of age of parity Large White pigs (P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference among genotypes in the litter weight at birth (Table 7).
[0098] Table 7 Effect of BMBAI gene SNPs on the reproductive performance of parity Large White sows
[0099]
[0100] In the examples of this application, through software (RNAfold web server) analysis, it was found that after the synonymous mutations (g.390T>C and g.492C>T) occurred in the BAMBI gene, the secondary structure and free energy of the mRNA of the BAMBI gene changed. Through correlation analysis with the reproductive performance of Large White sows, it was found that both synonymous mutation sites of the BAMBI gene were related to the reproductive performance of Large White sows. It is suggested that the influence of genetic variation of the BAMBI gene on the reproductive performance of Large White sows may be related to the influence on the mRNA stability or protein translation efficiency after the synonymous mutation of the BAMBI gene, but the specific mechanism remains to be further studied in the future.

Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be covered by the protection scope of this application.
