Abstract
A genome-wide association study is conducted to identify gene polymorphisms in pigs associated with common pathologies in young animals. The genomes of 97 pigs (Landrace and Large White breeds) are sequenced, followed by genome-wide association analysis to identify possible markers of potentially heritable defects (malnutrition, gastroenteritis, scrotal hernia and cryptorchidism, tremors at birth). Polymorphisms are found in various genes, including those associated with development of the nervous system and the formation of neurological diseases, even in the case of pathologies not directly related to the functions of the nervous system.
期刊介绍:
Nanobiotechnology Reports publishes interdisciplinary research articles on fundamental aspects of the structure and properties of nanoscale objects and nanomaterials, polymeric and bioorganic molecules, and supramolecular and biohybrid complexes, as well as articles that discuss technologies for their preparation and processing, and practical implementation of products, devices, and nature-like systems based on them. The journal publishes original articles and reviews that meet the highest scientific quality standards in the following areas of science and technology studies: self-organizing structures and nanoassemblies; nanostructures, including nanotubes; functional and structural nanomaterials; polymeric, bioorganic, and hybrid nanomaterials; devices and products based on nanomaterials and nanotechnology; nanobiology and genetics, and omics technologies; nanobiomedicine and nanopharmaceutics; nanoelectronics and neuromorphic computing systems; neurocognitive systems and technologies; nanophotonics; natural science methods in a study of cultural heritage items; metrology, standardization, and monitoring in nanotechnology.
