Genetic Dissection of Production Traits in Commercial Pigs: Comparative Effects of Terminal Sire Lines and Genome-Wide Associations.

Animal genetics - 1 Jun 2026

Abstract excerpt

The genetic antagonism between lean meat yield and meat quality dictates the need for precise selection in pigs. This study evaluated the impact of terminal sire lines (Duroc [D], Pietrain [P], and their F1 cross [PD]) on production traits and performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in a 1295 commercial population. Results revealed a clear genetic trade-off: D-sired progeny showed superior intramuscular...
