Genetic analysis of the blood transcriptome of young healthy pigs to improve disease resilience
Abstract Background Disease resilience is the ability of an animal to maintain productive performance under disease conditions and is an important selection target. In pig breeding programs, disease resilience must be evaluated on selection candidates without exposing them to disease. To identify po...
