Genome-wide analysis suggests multiple domestication events of Chinese local pigs.

Chinese local pigs have abundant phenotypes as a result of different cultures and habits of Chinese populations, geographic constraints and the long history of pig domestication. A comprehensive investigation of local Chinese pigs will benefit biodiversity research and future breeding practices. However, their classification and demographic history are not yet clear. We studied 91 Chinese local pigs from 14...
