Genome Wide Assessment of Genetic Variation and Population Distinctiveness of the Pig Family in South Africa
Genetic diversity is of great importance and a prerequisite for genetic improvement and conservation programs in pigs and other livestock populations. The present study provides a genome wide analysis of the genetic variability and population structure of pig populations from different production sy...
