| abstractText | Two-dimensional agarose gel (pH 5.4)-polyacrylamide gel (pH 9.0) electrophoresis of pig serum samples revealed a new serum protein (postalbumin-2, PO-2) polymorphism. Family data supported the hypothesis that the three PO-2 phenotypes observed were controlled by two codominant, autosomal alleles (Po-2F and Po-2s) at a single locus. The frequency of Po-2F in Swedish Landrace and in Swedish Yorkshire breeds was estimated at 0.74 and 0.65, respectively. Evidence was presented for close genetic linkage between Po-2 and the red cell phosphohexose isomerase locus (Phi). A recombination frequency of 3.2% was obtained from double backcross material. Data obtained in a Danish Landrace material showing linkage between the Po-2 locus and the H blood group locus, the Pgd locus and Hal (locus for halothane sensitivity) are also given. A total of seven recombinants were observed. They show that Po-2 is a new locus in a previously established linkage group. The likely sequence of the loci is: Phi, Hal, S, H, Po-2, Pgd. |
