Mutation c.307G>A in FUT1 gene has no effect on production performance of Yorkshire pigs in the tropics: the case of Vietnam

The alpha (1) fucosyltransferase gene (FUT1) is a candidate gene for controlling the adhesion of Escherichia coli F18 receptor. Indeed, a single-nucleotide polymorphism, c.307G>A, located in the gene is such that pigs with AA genotype are resistant to entero-toxigenic E. coli F18, whereas those w...
