A mispairing PCR-RFLP technique was applied in this study to determine the Insulin-like Growth Factor 2(IGF2) gene intron3 G3072A mutation in an outbred Landrace and Large White, and the gelded boars from Landrace x Large White cross. The difference of corresponding traits and the genetic effects of...
