摘要
The prolactin receptor (PRLR), a type I cytokine receptor, must bind prolactin (PRL) to act on target cells to mediate various physiological functions, including reproduction and lactation. This study identified an 80-bp insertion/deletion (indel) polymorphism in the 3 '-untranslated region (3 '-UTR) of the chicken PRLR gene in 3736 individuals from 15 breeds and analyzed its associations with growth and carcass traits in an F-2 resource population. The results of the association analysis indicated that the 80-bp indel polymorphism was significantly (P<0.05) or very significantly (P<0.01) associated with multiple growth and carcass traits, such as body weight, leg weight, and shank length. In addition, we found that during the breeding process of commercial laying hens and commercial broilers, the 80-bp indel locus was artificially selected for the II genotype. Together, our findings reveal that this 80-bp indel polymorphism has potential as a new molecular marker for marker-assisted selection of chicken growth and carcass traits.
