Multi-Thoracolumbar Variations and <i>NR6A1</i> Gene Polymorphisms Potentially Associated with Body Size and Carcass Traits of Dezhou Donkey
The number of thoracolumbar vertebrae is a quantitative trait positively correlated with the economic traits of livestock. More thoracolumbar vertebrae individuals could genetically be used to improve the livestock population, as more thoracolumbar vertebrae means a longer carcass, which could bring...
