Short Communication: FUT1 genetic polymorphism influences susceptibility to F18 enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection in pigs
{{output}}
F18 enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causes post-weaning diarrhea in nursery pigs, with susceptibility determined by a polymorphism in the α(1,2)-fucosyltransferase (FUT1) gene at nucleotide M307, where FUT1-M307A/A pigs are deemed F18 resistant and FU... ...
