A high density recombination map of the pig reveals a correlation between sex-specific recombination and GC content

A high density recombination map of the pig reveals a correlation between sex-specific recombination and GC content

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The availability of a high-density SNP genotyping chip and a reference genome sequence of the pig (<it>Sus scrofa</it>) enabled the construction of a high-density linkage map. A high-density linkage map is an essential to...
