Abstract: | The genetic polymorphisms in PLIN gene were detected by PCR-RFLP method in four Chinese local chickens including Jining Bairi chicken,Laiwu Black chicken et al.,and one breeding strain.The correlations between the SNP and the carcass and fatness traits were analyzed.As a result,a novel G→A mutation at 2 467 bp in PLIN gene was identified in the five populations.Three genotypes (A1A1,A1A2 and A2A2) were detected,and allele A1 was predominant in all the five experimental populations.The statistical analysis showed that the 2 467 bp polymorphism locus was significant association with some carcass and fatness traits (P<0.05).The living body weight,carcass weight,eviscerated weight,abdominal fat weight and percentage of abdominal fat of A1A1 genotype was higher than A2A2 genotype in chickens (P<0.05).The breast intramuscular fat of A1A2 genotype was higher than that of A1A1 and A2A2 genotypes in chickens (P<0.05).The results showed that PLIN gene had effect on carcass and fatness traits in chickens. |
