Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Average backfat thickness (BFT) is a critical complex trait in pig and an important indicator for fat deposition and lean rate. Usually, genome-wide association study (GWAS) was used to discover quantitative trait loci (QTLs) of BFT in a single population. However, the power of GWAS is limited by sample size in a single population. Alternatively, meta-analysis of GWAS (metaGWAS) is an attractive...
