title: Localization of the Po2 locus in the S, Phi, Hal, H, Po2, Pgd linkage group in pigs.
abstract: The localization of the Po2 locus controlling a polymorphic serum postalbumin was studied in 41 families of the Czech Landrace breed. The haplotypes involving six closely linked loci (S, Phi, Hal, H, Po2, Pgd) were determined for each family member. The crossovers observed between the H, Po2 and Pgd loci indicated that Po2 is located between H and Pgd. The Po2 locus appears to be closer to H [theta = 0.54% (0.06%-1.92%)] than to Pgd [theta = 4.02% (1.67%-7.96%)]. A strong Ha-Po2S association (r = 0.96, P less than 0.001) and H-PO2 linkage disequilibrium (D = 0.2218, P less than 0.01, D/DMax = 0.98) were found.
