Screening for candidate genes related with histological microstructure, meat quality and carcass characteristic in pig based on RNA-seq data

Objective The aim of the present study was to identify genetic variants based on RNA-seq data, obtained via transcriptome sequencing of muscle tissue of pigs differing in muscle histological structure, and to verify the variants’ effect on histological microstructure and production traits in a large...
