Journal ArticleDOI
Missense mutations in exon 4 of the porcine LEPR gene encoding extracellular domain and their association with fatness traits.
M. Mackowski,K. Szymoniak,Maciej Szydlowski,M. Kamyczek,R. Eckert,M. Rozycki,Marek Switonski +6 more
TL;DR: Three non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms were detected in exon 4 of the porcine leptin receptor (LEPR) gene and the phenotypic effect of the Tsp509I polymorphism was tested for the Polish Landrace and a synthetic line 990.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic diversity in Hucul and Polish primitive horse breeds
TL;DR: It is indicated that genetic diversity in the Polish primitive horse and Hucul breeds in Poland is still relatively high and conservation programs should be continued to keep it on the "safe" level in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
No major effect of the leptin gene polymorphism on porcine production traits
Maciej Szydlowski,Monika Stachowiak,M. Mackowski,M. Kamyczek,R. Eckert,M. Rozycki,Marek Switonski +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the detected associations are population-specific and the analysed polymorphism of the LEP gene does not contribute directly to genetic variability of growth and carcass traits in pigs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytogenetic mapping of DGAT1, PPARA, ADIPOR1 and CREB genes in the pig.
Izabela Szczerbal,Li Lin,Monika Stachowiak,Agata Chmurzynska,M. Mackowski,Andreas Dr Winter,Krzysztof Flisikowski,Ruedi Fries,Marek Switonski +8 more
TL;DR: FISH localization of 4 porcine BAC clones harbouring potential candidate genes for fatness traits are shown and assignment of the studied genes in relation to QTL chromosome regions for meat quality in pig chromosomes SSC4, S SC5, SSC10 and SSC15 is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymorphism of the Porcine Leptin Gene Promoter and Analysis of Its Association with Gene Expression and Fatness Traits
Monika Stachowiak,M. Mackowski,Zofia E. Madeja,Maciej Szydlowski,A. Buszka,Przemyslaw Kaczmarek,B. Rubis,Paweł Maćkowiak,Krzysztof W. Nowak,Marek Switonski +9 more
TL;DR: A 245 bp fragment of the porcine leptin gene promoter in the proximity of the transcription start site is described for the first time and there is no evidence for an association of the LEP promoter genotype with the analyzed fatness traits.
