Identification of Homozygous Regions With Adverse Effects on the Five Economic Traits of Duroc Pigs

Identification of Homozygous Regions With Adverse Effects on the Five Economic Traits of Duroc Pigs

Runs of homozygosity (ROH) are widely used to estimate genomic inbreeding, which is linked to inbreeding depression on phenotypes. However, the adverse effects of specific homozygous regions on phenotypic characteristics are rarely studied in livestock. In this study, the 50 K SNP data of 3,770 S21...
