Rapid communication: A PCR-RFLP marker at the porcine complement factor B gene locus shows between-population frequency variation
Article Abstract:
Swines only have one complement factor B gene locus for every haploid genome. The fragment length polymorphism of the factor B gene locus, which can be found in the SLA complex class III region, can be detected through amplification cycles such as denaturation, annealing and extension. Variety of pigs such as Erhualian, Landrace, Pietrain, Duroc and Hampshire contain significant population differences in allele frequencies of the gene fragment.

Rapid communication: mapping of an x-linked porcine microsatellite
Article Abstract:
The nucleotide mapping of porcine microsatellites that are linked with an x-gene has exhibited codominance traits. Six polymorphic alleles were detected and SO511 was identified as the microsatellite locus of porcine. So511 locus was also detected with an x-linkage indicating a greater gene contribution from female alleles. Polymorphic alleles have sizes ranging from 152 to 178 bp and are inherited through codominance.

Rapid communication: a PCR amplified product length polymorphism (APLP) marker at the porcine glucosephosphate isomerase locus shows between-population frequency variation
Article Abstract:
The swine's glucosephosphate isomerase gene locus was studied by analyzing the polymerase chain reaction condition. The genotypes of the variety of swine including Erhualian, Landrace, Pietrain, Duroc and Hampshire were also analyzed. Significant differences in the frequency of allele were found in the five breeds. An absent of allele 1 was found on the Erhulian and Pietrain breeds.
