Association between insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) microsatellite polymorphisms and important economic traits in pigs Associação entre polimorfismos no marcador microssatélite do gene do fator de crescimento semelhante à insulina I (IGF-I) com características de interesse econômico em suínos

Association between insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) microsatellite polymorphisms and important economic traits in pigs Associação entre polimorfismos no marcador microssatélite do gene do fator de crescimento semelhante à insulina I (IGF-I) com características de interesse econômico em suínos

This study investigated the association between IGF-I microsatellite marker in an F2 population (N=459) generated by mating of native boars to Brazilian commercial sows with performance, carcass cut, and meat quality traits. Association analyses were carried out using a statistical model that includ...
