Abstract excerpt
Semen traits play a crucial role in pig reproduction and fertility. However, limited data availability hinder a comprehensive understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying these traits. In this study, we integrated 597 299 ejaculates and 3 596 sequence data to identify genetic variants and candidate genes related to four semen traits, including sperm progressive motility (MOT), semen volume, sperm...
