The animals used originated from a composite line (Laconie). Thirteen reference families of double backcross X were selected type (RN- /rn+ /rnrn++) to search for a marker of the RN locus. The present study gives the results obtained on a sample of 220 offspring for which the RN allele coming from the heterozygous parent was considered as known after a segregation analysis of RTN data. A systematic approach was applied to identify markers linked to RN, using a panel of 63 microsatellite markers, which are informative in those families for 1 700 cM of the pig genome. The analysis of allelic segregations allowed the mapping of the RN locus to chromosome 15 at a distance of 18 cM from the marker S0088. pig / meat quality / major gene / molecular marker / linkage Résumé - Le locus RNde qualité de la viande est situé sur le chromosome 15 du porc.
