Association between ESR1 and RBP4 genes and litter size traits in a hyperprolific line of Landrace × Large White cross sows

This study was aimed at analysing single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the oestrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) genes in a hyperprolific line of Landrace × Large White (Topigs 20) cross sows (n = 101). The following litter size traits were analysed: total number born, numbe...
