    Notes: Summary Cytoplasmic genes of crop species exhibit non-Mendelian inheritance and affect quantitative traits such as biomass and grain yield. Photosynthesis and respiration are physiological processes responsible, in part, for the expression of such quantitative traits and are regulated by enzymes encoded in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Cytoplasmic genes are located in the chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes. Unlike the nuclear genome, the cytoplasmic genomes consist of single, circular, double-stranded molecules of DNA, and in many crop species, the cytoplasmic genomes are inherited solely through the maternal parent. Maternal inheritance of cytoplasmic genomes and Mendelian inheritance of the nuclear genome were used to model the genotypic value of an individual. The model then was utilized to derive genetic variances and covariances for a random-mating population. Finally, the use of reciprocal mating designs to estimate variance components was investigated.

    Notes: Summary Restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses of SLA class I genes were performed on 55 Duroc and 24 Hampshire boars from the 1986–87 national performance tests of each breed. Few boars were inbred. Southern blotting and hybridization procedures were performed on genomic DNA isolated from white blood cells by using Pvu II, Bam HI, and Eco RI endonucleases and a swine MHC class I probe. Genetic variability within and between the two breeds was estimated in terms of nucleotide diversity, by using a mathematical analysis based on the different RFLP patterns. The nucleotide diversity calculated within each breed was less than that between the two breeds. The results from the nucleotide diversity analysis suggested that genetic variability was greater in the Duroc breed than in the Hampshire breed. A relatively high level of genetic variability was shown in the class I major histocompatibility complex genes in the pig.
