Detection of genomic signatures for pig hairlessness using high-density SNP data
Hair provides thermal regulation for mammals and protects the skin from wounds, bites and ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and is important in adaptation to volatile environments. Pigs in nature are divided into hairy and hairless, which provide a good model for deciphering the molecular mechanisms of ha...
