Characterization of Autozygosity in Pigs in Three-Way Crossbreeding

Crossbreeding in livestock can be used to increase genetic diversity. The resulting increase in variability is related to the heterozygosity of the crossbred animal. The evolution of diversity during crossbreeding can be assessed using genomic data. The objective of this study was to describe patter...
