Summary. By means of a new antiserum, Mm, the Mae phenotype can be shown to be controlled by the M aem allele, the Mef phenotype by either the original M ef or a new M efm allele, and the Mbe(f) phenotype by the M be(f)m allele. The complexity of the porcine M system is now extended to 13 internationally recognized blood group factors controlled by at least 19 alleles.
