Characterisation of genetic variation in the pig breeds of china and europe to facilitate the maintenance and exploitation of biodiversity

Ziel

Genetic diversity among the pig breeds of China and Europe will be evaluated. At least 50 Chinese breeds will be sampled and compared with 59 European breeds previously sampled. Breed relationships will be determined by estimating genetic distance based on micro satellite markers and heliotypic relationships from medina and Y-chromosome polymorphisms. The relationship between general measures of genetic diversity, such as genetic distance, and functional differences among breeds will be determined by characterising trait gene loci (type I markers) and QTL regions. Measures of diversity derived from anonymous markers (micro satellites) will be compared to measures derived from the trait genes. Analysis methodologies to utilise DNA marker (genetic) data for identifying genes involved in functional differences between breeds will be developed.
