Abstract
The loci encoding the porcine intestinal receptors for Escherichia coli K88ab and K88ac (K88abR and K88acR) were firmly assigned to chromosome 13 by linkage analysis using a three-generation pedigree. The linear order of these loci and seven other markers on chromosome 13 was determined by multipoint analyses. The K88abR and K88acR loci were tightly linked with the K88abR locus localized 7·4 cM (sex average) proximal to the transferrin locus. The results, together with previous reports from two other groups, provide an unequivocal assignment of the K88 receptor loci to chromosome 13, and reject a previous assignment to chromosome 4. Pigs possessing the receptor had a slightly higher specific IgG response to the K88 antigen after an intramuscular immunization with an E. coli vaccine.Keywords
