Abstract excerpt

Inbreeding and loss of genetic diversity are serious problems in local Chinese pig breeds. Runs of homozygosity (ROHs) are contiguous lengths of homozygous genotypes that can provide information on inbreeding levels, mating schemes, selection pressure, and genetic events. The Anqing six-end-white (AQ) pig, an important autochthonous pig breed bred in the Anhui province of China, plays a key role in the local pig...
