Abstract
The aim of the study was to analyze the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs80860411A>C located in the intergenic region of chromosome 13 (near the GALNT15 gene encoding Polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase15, GALNTL2) and fat-tening and slaughter traits of pigs. The study was conducted on 426 individuals belonging to three breeds: Polish Landrace (n = 192), Polish Large White (n = 187) and Pulawska (n = 48). The rs80860411 genotypes were determined using the PCR-RFLP method. Association analysis was performed for each breed separately, as well as for the entire study group. The study showed that rs80860411A>C had a significant effect on fattening performance traits, as well as on several slaughter performance traits, including: width of the loin eye, loin and ham weights without skin and backfat and carcass meat content (P ≤ 0.01, P ≤ 0.05). The obtained results indicate that the studied SNP has the potential to be included in pig selection programs, thus potentially influencing the improvement of fat-tening and slaughter traits of different pig breeds.
