Abstract:
Belted pig breeds have unique, distinguishing phenotypic characteristics. This review summarises the current knowledge on pig breeds displaying a belted coat pattern. Belts of different widths and positions around the animal\'s trunk characterise specific pig breeds from all around the world. All the breeds included in the present paper have been searched through the FAO domestic animal diversity information system (DAD-IS), Every country was checked to identify all breeds described as having black or red piebald coat pattern variations. Advances in genomic technologies have made it possible to identify the specific genes and genetic markers associated with the belted phenotype and explore the genetic relationships between different local breeds. Thus, the origin, history, and production traits of these breeds, together with all the genomic information related to the mechanism of skin pigmentation, are discussed. By increasing our understanding of these breeds, we can appreciate the richness of our biological and cultural heritage and work to preserve the biodiversity of the world\'s animals.
摘要:
束带猪品种有独特之处,区分表型特征。这篇评论总结了有关显示束带外套图案的猪品种的最新知识。动物躯干周围不同宽度和位置的皮带表征了来自世界各地的特定猪品种。本文所包括的所有品种均已通过粮农组织国内动物多样性信息系统(DAD-IS)检索,每个国家都经过检查,以确定所有被描述为具有黑色或红色花斑外套图案变化的品种。基因组技术的进步使鉴定与带表型相关的特定基因和遗传标记以及探索不同地方品种之间的遗传关系成为可能。因此,起源,历史,和这些品种的生产特征,以及与皮肤色素沉着机制相关的所有基因组信息,正在讨论。通过增加我们对这些品种的了解,我们可以欣赏我们丰富的生物和文化遗产,并努力保护世界动物的生物多样性。
