EFFECT OF POLYMORPHIC VARIANTS OF MUC4, ECR F18/FUT1 AND Mx1 GENES ON REPRODUCTIVE TRAITS OF SOWS

Abstract

The effect of polymorphic variants of MUC4, ECR F18/FUT1 and Mx1 genes on reproductive traits of sows of Belarusian large white and Belarusian meat breeds is studied. A significant increase in the number of piglets to weaning from sows of MUC4CC genotype by 0,6 pig, number of piglets born alive for sows of MUC4СС Mx1АА complex genotype by 0,6-0,7 pig, a significant decrease in the percentage of emergency farrowing for animals of ECR F18/FUT1АА, MUC4СС ECR F18/FUT1АА, ECR F18/FUT1АА Mx1АА genotypes by 11,8-15,5percentage points, as well trend of positive effect of MUC4СС, Mx1АА, ECR F18/FUT1АА genotypes and MUC4СС Mx1АА, MUC4СС ECR F18/FUT1АА, ECR F18/FUT1АА Mx1АА complexgenotypes on a number of indicators of performance traits of sows.
