Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of molecular biology, and relates to a SNP marker related to pig small intestine length, a detection method and use thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, the demand for feed grains has been increasing, especially the high dependence on imports of raw materials such as corn and soybean meal. How to improve efficiency and save grains and improve feed utilization is an important problem to be solved. The pig small intestine is the main digestive and absorptive organ of the body, and almost all fat and most of the carbohydrates and proteins are digested and absorbed in the small intestine. The small intestine length is significantly positively correlated with important economic traits such as fat deposition, feed reward, and growth traits such as daily gain and carcass weight. Selecting a pig breed with a longer small intestine length has great economic value.
[0003] However, the small intestine length is mainly determined after slaughter, and the conventional breeding is difficult. Compared with traditional breeding, molecular selection using markers related to traits can effectively accelerate the breeding process. Studying the genetic mechanism of pig small intestine length variation and identifying relevant molecular markers affecting pig small intestine length for breeding has important economic benefits for breeding grain-saving populations or new lines.

[0055] Table 1 shows the results of the effect of different genotypes of rs80947993 site on the small intestine length of pigs. The results show that the genotype of rs80947993 site is significantly associated with the small intestine length phenotype (P<0.05). Among them, the small intestine length of TT and GT type individuals is significantly longer than that of GG type individuals (P<0.05), and the small intestine length of GT type individuals is significantly different from that of GG type (P<0.05).
