Identifying the complex genetic architecture of growth and fatness traits in a Duroc pig population

In modern pig breeding programs, growth and fatness are vital economic traits that significantly influence porcine production. To identify underlying variants and candidate genes associated with growth and fatness traits, a total of 1 067 genotyped Duroc pigs with de-regressed estimated breeding val...
