Wnt gene expression in adult porcine longissimus dorsi and its association with muscle fiber type, energy metabolism, and meat quality

This study investigated the expression profiles of Wnt genes in adult porcine longissimus dorsi (LD) from different porcine genotypes and their associations with meat quality. The results showed that Wnt5a gene expression level was the highest in Jinhua (JHP) pigs, followed by Zhongbai (ZBP), Duroc×...
