Genome-wide DNA methylation profiles in Tibetan and Yorkshire pigs under high-altitude hypoxia
Abstract Background Tibetan pigs, which inhabit the Tibetan Plateau, exhibit distinct phenotypic and physiological characteristics from those of lowland pigs and have adapted well to the extreme conditions at high altitude. However, the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of hypoxic adaptation in anim...
