Abstract excerpt
Determining genetic correlations (GCs) between phenotypes that can be replicated across breeds or generations is important for animal breeding. A comprehensive and objective evaluation of this is dependent on enough variations in the studied phenotypes. To this end, we constructed a worldwide distributed eight-breeds crossbreed mosaic pig population and estimated the genetic and phenotypic correlations of muscle...
