Abstract excerpt
The goal of this study was to evaluate the effects of mutations in the FGL1 gene associated with pig productive traits to enrich the genetic marker pool for further selection and to support the studies on FGL1 in the context of the fat deposition (FD) process. The variant calling and χ2 analyses of liver RNA-seq data were used to indicate genetic markers. FGL1 mutations were genotyped in the Złotnicka White (n =...
