Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Body Size traits, particularly body weight (BW) and body mass index (BMI) at slaughter age, determine the meat yield and productivity of pigs. These phenotypes are shaped by numerous small-effect polygenes and regulated mostly by non-coding variants. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several loci and candidate functional variants, the regulatory mechanisms and causative...
