Abstract excerpt
The Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) (DLY) pig is a cornerstone of three-way crossbreeding system. Nevertheless, advances in commercial crossbred performance have been constrained by the dearth of high-resolution genomic resources for this key population. Here, we report the sequencing and assembly of 16 haplotype-resolved, chromosome-level genome assemblies derived from eight DLY pigs. These assemblies exhibited...
