Identification of eQTLs using different sets of single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with carcass and body composition traits in pigs

Abstract Background Mapping expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in skeletal muscle tissue in pigs is crucial for understanding the relationship between genetic variation and phenotypic expression of carcass traits in meat animals. Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to evaluate...
