Imputation to whole-genome sequence and its use in genome-wide association studies for pork colour traits in crossbred and purebred pigs

Imputation to whole-genome sequence and its use in genome-wide association studies for pork colour traits in crossbred and purebred pigs

Imputed whole-genome sequence (WGS) has been proposed to improve genome-wide association studies (GWAS), since all causative mutations responsible for phenotypic variation are expected to be present in the data. This approach was applied on a large number of purebred (PB) and crossbred (CB) pigs for...
