From QTL to QTN: candidate gene set approach and a case study in porcine IGF1-FoxO pathway.
Unraveling the genetic background of economic traits is a major goal in modern animal genetics and breeding. Both candidate gene analysis and QTL mapping have previously been used for identifying genes and chromosome regions related to studied traits. However, most of these studies may be limited in...
