Abstract excerpt
This study presents a systems genetic analysis on the physiology of cortisol in mice and pigs with an aim to show the potential of a comprehensive computational approach to quickly identify candidate genes and avoid a costly whole-genome quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. Population genetics analyses were performed on measurements of cortisol from a pig selection experiment. Expression QTL were mapped and...
