| Abstract |
Adiponectin plays a critically biological role in atherosclerosis, glucose utilization, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, and triglyceride synthesis in animals and humans. However, little is known about the effect of adiponectin on lipid metabolism of the avian species. The aim of the preset study was to investigate the potential associations between adiponectin gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the lipid traits in 348 females of Tianzhu Black Muscovy. Three novel SNPs (167G>A, 290T>C and 711G>A) were detected in adiponectin gene. 167G>A and 290T>C has linked very closely, and then 711G>A with 167G>A and 290T>C has no strong linkage disequilibrium, respectively. The Chi square test showed that allelic frequency and genotype frequency of two SNPs (167G>A and 711G>A) didn't agree with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05). Four haplotypes and nine diplotypes were formed on the three SNPs of adiponectin gene. Association analysis indicated that the 167G>A genotypes were strongly associated with intramuscular fat (IMF) of chest muscle and serum total cholesterol (TC) (P < 0.01); the 290T>C genotypes were strongly associated with IMF, TC, and serum triglyceride (TG) (P < 0.01); furthermore, the 711G>A genotypes were significantly associated with TG and TC (P < 0.05); the diplotypes were strongly associated with IMF, TC, and TG (P < 0.01). Therefore, three SNPs in adiponectin were potential markers for improving IMF in Muscovy ducks.
