Genomic analyses provide insights into breed-of-origin effects from purebreds on three-way crossbred pigs

Crossbreeding is widely used aimed at improving crossbred performance for poultry and livestock. Alleles that are specific to different purebreds will yield a large number of heterozygous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in crossbred individuals, which are supposed to have the power to alter g...
