Assessment of Heterozygosity and Genome-Wide Analysis of Heterozygosity Regions in Two Duroc Pig Populations

Assessment of Heterozygosity and Genome-Wide Analysis of Heterozygosity Regions in Two Duroc Pig Populations

Heterozygosity can effectively reflect the diverse models of population structure and demographic history. However, the genomic distribution of heterozygotes and the correlation between regions of heterozygosity (runs of heterozygosity, ROHet) and phenotypes are largely understudied in livestock. Th...
