Abstract
Combinations of four alpha -2-globulin allotypes were studied for their dis tribution in pigs of nine different breeds and hybrid groups. Based on this analysis, a new, previously unpublished polyallelic genetic system designa ted A2G was postulated. The complex alleles of this system control alpha -2 -globulin allotypes and are suggested to be encoded by genes of two subloci . One of these subloci is virtually monomorphic, whereas the Other has at l east four allelic variants.
