Genome-wide identification of QTL for age at puberty in gilts using a large intercross F<sub>2 </sub>population between White Duroc × Erhualian

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Puberty is a fundamental development process experienced by all reproductively competent adults, yet the specific factors regulating age at puberty remain elusive in pigs. In this study, we performed a genome scan to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecti...
