Detection of quantitative trait loci for porcine susceptibility to enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli F41 in a White Duroc × Chinese Erhualian resource population
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of diarrhoea in neonatal and postweaning pigs. F41 is one of ETEC fimbriae that adhere to the small intestinal epithelium and lead to development of diarrhoea. The genetic architecture of susceptibility to ETEC F41 remains elusive in pigs. In...
