Estimated halothane gene frequency in eight British pig breeding companies

Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Production (1972), 1986
Eight breeding companies contributed foundation stock for a joint experiment on lean growth at the Animal Breeding Research Organisation (ABRO) and Wye College. All animals were test-mated to halothane positive (HP) reactors and incidences of HP reaction among progeny were used to estimate the frequency of the halothane gene (n) in the original herds ...

The effect of the Halothane and Rendement Napole genes on carcass and meat quality characteristics of pigs.

Journal of Animal Science, 2000
The objective of this study was to determine the effects of the Halothane (N) and Rendement Napole (RN) genes on carcass and meat quality characteristics in pigs. Halothane and RN carrier (Nn/RN- rn+) Hampshire boars (n = 4) were mated to dams that were homozygous for the normal allele of both genes (NN/rn+ rn+) to produce progeny of four genotypes: 1,

ESTIMATION OF THE FREQUENCY OF THE HALOTHANE GENE AND ITS EFFECTS IN LANDRACE AND YORKSHIRE PIGS IN ONTARIO

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1990
Data from 2554 Landrace and 2566 Yorkshire young boars submitted to the Record of Performance test station in Ontario between 1982 and 1986 were used to estimate frequency of reaction to halothane and frequency of the halothane gene. Approximately 1.4% of Landrace and 0.9% of Yorkshire boars had a positive reaction to halothane. The number of reactors

Selective Effects of Pentobarbital and Halothane on c-fos and jun-B Gene Expression in Rat Brain

Anesthesiology, 1992
The effects of pentobarbital and halothane anesthesia on the expression in brain of the immediate-early genes c-fos and jun-B were investigated. Pentobarbital-anesthetized rats (n = 10) received a single intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital 65 mg/kg in a vehicle of 40% propylene glycol and 10% ethanol and then were placed in a plexiglass box ...

Identification of halothane gene carriers by use of in vivo 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in pigs

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1992
SUMMARY In vivo muscle 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was performed on 12 homozygous halothane-nonsensitive female pigs and 13 female pigs heterozygous with respect to the halothane gene. Fifteen female pigs of a third line, consisting of heterozygotes and halothane-nonsensitive homozygotes, were also available.

Impact of the halothane gene on muscle quality and pre-slaughter deaths in Western Canadian pigs

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1998
The genotype with respect to the point mutation at position 1843 of the ryr-1 gene (halothane gene) and longissimus muscle quality of 1006 pigs in two Western Canadian packing plants was assessed to determine the frequency of this mutation within the commercial population and the relationship of genotype to the frequency of PSE (pale, soft, exudative)

Relative accuracy of the halothane challenge test and a molecular genetic test in detecting the gene for porcine stress syndrome

Journal of Animal Science, 1993
Pietrain swine homozygous for the hal gene (n) associated with porcine stress syndrome (PSS) and a Pietrain-derivative breed, Near Pietrain (NP), with a frequency of .31 for n, were mated to produce reciprocal F1, F2, and purebred NP litters. The halothane challenge test was performed on all 40 parents and 240 progeny to predict their hal genotype and ...
