Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Bamei pigs are special germplasm resources in Qinghai. In the specific environment of the Qinghai plateau, local breeds, through long-term natural and artificial selection, have acquired a relatively stable population structure and genetic diversity. This study revealed Bamei pigs' genetic diversity at the molecular level and the degree of introgression of commercial breeds into Bamei pigs. METHODS:...
