Abstract excerpt
The first quantitative trait locus (QTL) in pigs, FAT1, was found on Chromosome 4 (SSC4) using a Wild Boar intercross. Further mapping has refined the FAT1 QTL to a region with conserved synteny to both human Chromosomes 1 and 8. To both improve the comparative map of the entire SSC4 and to define the specific human chromosome region with conserved synteny to FAT1, we have now mapped 103 loci to pig Chromosome 4...
