Abstract:Two hundred and thirty-six pigs from Wannan Black pig, Anqing Liubai pig, Wei Pig and Huoshou Black pig populations were used for detecting the polymorphism of PLIN1 gene by PCR-SSCP method. The results showed that a A>G mutation at 3 519 base position, and 3 genotypes (AA, AB and BB) were found in Wannan Black and Anqing Liubai. The genotypic frequency of AA was 8.97%, 29.23%, respectively, AB was 43.59%, 56.92%, respectively, and BB was 47.44%, 13.85%, respectively. The polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.3353 in Wannan Black population and 0.3690 in Anqing Liubai population, which were all in average polymorphism situation. According to the χ2 test, there were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in Wannan Black and Anqing Liubai population (P>0.05), but there was no mutation in exon 2 in Wei Pig and Huoshou Black pig populations. Moreover, there was no mutation in exon 3 in these four populations.
