Abstract
ABSTRACT Min pigs and Large White pigs are two breeds that vary significantly in thickness of adipose tissue. In this study, transcriptome profiling was used to examine the fat tissues of both breeds. Min pig compared to Large White pig, 523 DEGs were down-regulated, and 112 DEGs were up-regulated. The DEGs were significantly enriched in biological process of oxidoreductase activity; helicase activity and others. In cellular component, DEGs were enriched in intracellular. In molecular function, DEGs were enriched in cytoskeletal protein binding and ion binding. Although there were many DEGs between Min pigs and Large White pigs, no significant pathway was enriched surprisingly. ATP6V0A4, TAP2, FGFBP1, PHEROA and GLYATL2 were expressed significantly higher in Large White pigs. These results suggest that the gene expression pattern in the back fat tissue was different between Large White pigs and Min pigs.
期刊介绍:
Acta Agriculturæ Scandinavica, Section A – Animal Science publishes results of original research in animal science and their applications related to the following topics:
-Animal breeding and genetics
-Molecular genetics
-Animal physiology and reproduction
-Nutrition and feeding
-Animal behaviour and welfare
-General animal husbandry and systems of production, including economic and technical aspects
-Hygiene and quality of animal products
In addition to original articles, covering basic as well as applied subjects, the journal features review articles and short communications.
Acta Agriculturæ Scandinavica, Section A – Animal Science forms part of a trilogy of titles published on behalf of the Nordic Association of Agricultural Scientists (NJF). The series also includes Section B - Soil & Plant Science and the recently launched Section C - Food Economics .
Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica A, B and C are available to purchase as a combined subscription. This provides access to all three journals in the series, and is available to institutional subscribers only. For full pricing information, please view the Taylor & Francis Journals Price List here.
Scientists in research, teaching and extension with specialised interest in animal science and production.
