Abstract excerpt
In diploid organisms, each gene locus is composed of two parental alleles, which would interact with each other for determining the phenotypic variation. Better understanding of the allele-specific expression (ASE) in farm animals is much important to explore the genetic basis underlying economically important traits, which have been poorly understood yet. In this study, genome-wide analysis was applied to...
