Spermatogenesis is a complex process regulated by many genes. In this study, , and genes were selected as candidate genes for boar semen quality traits based on their functions during spermatogenesis, and the associations of three loci ( c.192 + 210-192 + 213delCGAT, c.374 + 358 T > C and c.956 + 796 A > G) with sperm quality traits were analyzed in Duroc ( = 185), Large White ( = 87) and Landrace ( = 49) pig populations. The results showed c.192 + 210-192 + 213delCGAT AA boars produced 1.52% lower abnormal sperm rate (ASR) than AB boars in Landrace pigs ( < 0.05); c.374 + 358 TC boars produced 0.31 × 10/ml higher sperm concentration (SCON) than CC boars ( < 0.05) in Large White pigs; c.956 + 796 A > G was associated with ASR in Duroc and Large White pigs and was associated with sperm motility (MOT) in Large White and Landrace pigs. This study indicated the , and loci were the potential molecular markers for improving the semen quality traits in boars.
精子发生是一个受许多基因调控的复杂过程。本研究选择了 、 和 基因作为候选基因,基于它们在精子发生过程中的功能,分析了三个基因座(c.192+210-192+213delCGAT、c.374+358T>C 和 c.956+796A>G)与猪精液质量性状的相关性。在杜洛克猪(n=185)、长白猪(n=87)和大约克夏猪(n=49)群体中,结果表明,c.192+210-192+213delCGAT AA 基因型公猪的异常精子率(ASR)比 AB 基因型公猪低 1.52%(P<0.05);c.374+358TC 基因型公猪的精子浓度(SCON)比 CC 基因型公猪高 0.31×10/ml(P<0.05);c.956+796A>G 与杜洛克猪和长白猪的 ASR 相关,与长白猪和大约克夏猪的精子活力(MOT)相关。本研究表明,、和 基因座是提高公猪精液质量性状的潜在分子标记。
