METHOD FOR DETERMINING A GENETIC MARKER FOR THE SELECTION OF PIGS OF THE SAME GENERATION

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the selection of pigs with a view to determining those more likely to produce more numerous larger litter in the first generation, to a primer employed for amplifying the region for the presence of the polymorphic Alul site in the pig prolactin receptor gene and to a DNA molecule associated to the pig prolactin receptor gene.
