Summary Specific alloprecipitins were found in blood plasma of pigs, immunized by sera of Lpr1 positive donors. These precipitins detected a new allotype of the lipoprotein Lpr system which was designated Lpr3. Genetic studies confirmed its codominant inheritance and subgroup character. This linear subgroup of allotype Lprl is controlled by the allele Lpr 1,3 . Investigations in populations of 14 pig breeds showed significant interbreed differences in the frequencies of alleles Lpr 1 , Lpr 2 and Lpr 1,3 .
