Abstract excerpt

Efficient genetic improvement of complex traits in pigs requires a deep understanding of their genetic architecture and a comprehensive catalog of molecular markers. Here, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and conditional analysis in 4,144 Yorkshire pigs, using 10.4 million imputed sequence variants and phenotype data on average backfat thickness at 100 kg (BFT_100). We identified 11...
