    abstract = {In this study, researchers chose the Interferon Regulatory Factor 6 (<I>IRF6</I>) gene as a candidate gene to evaluate its effect on porcine immune traits. Using the PCR-RFLP analysis and sequencing, a SNP (HQ026023:1383 G&gt;C) in exon7 of <I>IRF6</I> gene was detected. In addition, a further analysis of SNP genotypes associated with immune traits including IFN-&#947; and IL10 concentrations in serum was carried out in three pig breeds including Large White, Landraces and Chinese indigenous breed Dingyuan Black pig. Results showed that the SNP of <I>IRF6 </I>gene effects on level of IFN-&#947; and IL10 (day 20) in serum presented highly significances (p = 0.0264; p = 0.0238) and as for the ratio of IFN-&#947; to IL10 (day 20) in serum, the p-value was 0.0341 which also achieved a significant level. All the results could possibly indicate that the <I>IRF6</I> gene should be regarded as a molecular marker gene for genetic selection associated with these immune traits in the pig breeding program.}
