- Selection markers in Pampa Rocha pigs: a comparison with autochthonous breeds of Spain and Portugal Carmen Burgos S Silvia Llambí D Jorge Hidalgo G María Montenegro S Victoria Arruga L Pascual López-Bues Veterinaria IGF2 MC4R PEPCK PRKAG3 Sus scrofa Objective. The analysis of selection markers allows to obtain information about the evolutive story of a particular breed or line and allows also to evaluate the usefulness of those markers for breeding programs. We have analyzed SNPs in four genes of the creole pig breed Pampa Rocha and we have compared their allelic frequencies with the allelic frequencies of diverse autochthonous breeds of Spain and Portugal and also with Piétrain pigs and wild boars. Materials and methods. The SNPs were analyzed using diverse RT-PCR methods. Results. The results of the analysis show that Pampa Rocha pigs have similar allelic frequencies with the autochthonous breeds of Spain and Portugal especially in the case of IGF2 and also, but not so coincident, in the case of PEPCK-C. However, they differ considerably for MC4R, and also, but in a lower extent, for PRKAG3. We discuss in this work the usefulness of our results for breeding of Pampa Rocha pigs. Conclusions. Our results demonstrate the peculiarity of the Pampa Rocha breed regarding the markers studied. 2019 artículo científico 0122-0268 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=69360025010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/693/69360025010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/693/69360025010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/693/69360025010/69360025010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/693/69360025010/movil https://doi.org/10.21897/rmvz.1642 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=693 Revista MVZ Córdoba application/pdf Universidad de Córdoba Revista MVZ Córdoba (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.24
