A Poly(dA:dT) Tract in the <i>IGF1</i> Gene Is a Genetic Marker for Growth Traits in Pigs

Insulin-like growth factor 1 (<i>IGF1</i>) is an important regulator of body growth, development, and metabolism. The poly(dA:dT) tract affects the accessibility of transcription factor binding sites to regulate transcription. Therefore, this study assessed the effects of two poly(dA:dT)...
