Abstract:
The genetic variation of Meishan, Huainan, Tongcheng, Bamei, Hezuo and Largewhite pigs were analyzed by RAPD markers. Twenty-four single polymorphic primers were selected out of 276 primers by amplifying six pool DNA. The index of Shannon were 0.178672, 0.17781,0.15995, 0.14549,0.16949, 0.14159 respectively; Hpop was 0.16216, Hsp was 0.2534. The phylogenetic tree was constructed using NJ and UPGMA. The results indicated that the phenylogenetic relationship of the six pig breeds was consistent with their distribution.

Fundamentals of Breeding and Weaning
Millions of mice and rats are bred for use in biomedical research each year. Worldwide, there are several large commercial breeding facilities that supply mice to research laboratories, but many facilities choose to also breed mice and rats in-house to reduce costs and increase research options. When breeding in the animal facility, researchers are able to manipulate the genetics of the...
