Consequences of Epistasis on Growth in an Erhualian × White Duroc Pig Cross.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2017

Crooks Lucy, Guo Yuanmei

Abstract excerpt

Epistasis describes an interaction between the effects of loci. We included epistasis in quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping of growth at a series of ages in a cross of a Chinese pig breed, Erhualian, with a commercial line, White Duroc. Erhualian pigs have much lower growth rates than White Duroc. We improved a method for genomewide testing of epistasis and present a clear analysis workflow. We also suggest a...
