SNP genotypes reveal breed substructure, selection signatures and highly inbred regions in Piétrain pigs.

Animal genetics - 1 Feb 2020

Gorssen W, Meyermans R, Buys N, Janssens S

Abstract excerpt

The Piétrain pig originates from the Belgian village Piétrain some time between 1920 and 1950. Owing to its superior conformation, the Piétrain has spread worldwide since the 1960s. As initial population sizes were limited and close inbreeding was commonplace, the breed's genetic diversity has been questioned. Therefore, this study examines Piétrain breed substructure, diversity and selection signatures using SNP...
