Genome-wide search for candidate genes determining vertebrae number in pigs

Genome-wide search for candidate genes determining vertebrae number in pigs

Longer porcine carcasses may be expected to have more vertebrae. Therefore, vertebrae number in pigs is an economically important trait. To examine the genetic basis of this trait, we genotyped 578 F<inf>2</inf> Large White &#215; Minzhu pigs using the Porcine SNP60K BeadChip. A geno...
