Abstract excerpt

Pigs share numerous physiological and phenotypic similarities with human and thus have been considered as a good model in nonrodent mammals for the study of genetic basis of human obesity. Researches on candidate genes for obesity traits have successfully identified some common genes between humans and pigs. However, few studies have assessed how many similarities exist between the genetic architecture of obesity...
