Abstract:

【Objective】In this study, polymorphisms and linkage relationship of ovine ADIPOQ (adiponectin) gene were investigated and their effects on some growth and carcass traits were estimated, so as to enrich the molecular genetic data for sheep. 【Method】Mutations in Exon-1 and Exon-2 of ADIPOQ gene were detected by PCR-SSCP in 8 commodity sheep populations, and the relationship between mutations in growth and carcass traits in New Zealand (NZ) Romney lambs was investigated using General Linear Models (GLMs). 【Result】In total, thirteen SNPs were detected in Exon-1 and Exon-2 regions of ovine ADIPOQ gene, and the nucleotide substitution c.46T/C in Exon-2 resulted in amino acid change (p.Tyr16His). Allele A1 and B1 were the dominant allele in Exon-1, Allele A2 and D2 were the dominant allele in Exon-2, and there were difference of allele frequencies between these two regions. The majority population was moderately polymorphic in all regions (PIC<0.5), except Texel, Perendale and Dorset Down was low polymorphic in Exon-2 region (PIC<0.25), and there was a high linkage relationship of these mutation and tend to shared genetic linkages (D’=0.952, r 2=0.365). The association analysis showed that the mutations in Exon-1 region of ovine ADIPOQ gene had different effects on growth traits of male and female lambs. In male lambs, individuals with possessing allele A1 had lower tailing weight, weaning weight and pre-weaning growth rate than those no-possessing (P<0.05), but no associations were detected in female lambs (P>0.05). In female lambs, individuals with possessing allele B1 had higher tailing weight than those no-possessing (P<0.05), however, no associations were detected in male lambs (P>0.05). And individuals with possessing B1B1 had higher tailing weight and weaning weight in male lambs. The carcass traits association analysis results showed that individuals with possessing allele A1 had lower hot-carcass weight, loin yield, leg yield and total yield than those no-possessing (P<0.05), and individuals with possessing allele B1 had higher leg yield, proportion of led yield and lower proportion shoulder yield than those no-possessing (P<0.05), individuals with possessing B1B1 had higher hot carcass weight, loin yield, leg yield and total yield (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】Exon-1 and Exon-2 of ovine ADIPOQ gene had abundant polymorphisms, and SNP c.46T/C was non-synonymous. The mutations of Exon-1 of ovine ADIPOQ gene might affect some growth traits and carcass traits, and selecting sheep with allele B1 and genotype B1B1, or eliminating ones with allele A1 and A1A1 could improve some growth traits and carcass traits of Romney sheep.
