Identification of functional mutations associated with environmental variance of litter size in rabbits

Abstract Background Environmental variance (VE) is partly under genetic control and has recently been proposed as a measure of resilience. Unravelling the genetic background of the VE of complex traits could help to improve resilience of livestock and stabilize their production across farming system...
