Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The rising demand for high-quality pork among consumers has driven interest in genetic improvement strategies. Crossbreeding is well known to influence carcass performance and meat quality; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects are still poorly understood. In this study, the F1 generation of the Songlei Crossbred Pig (SL) was developed through crossing the Songliao Black Pig...
