A composite strategy of genome-wide association study and copy number variation analysis for carcass traits in a Duroc pig population

A composite strategy of genome-wide association study and copy number variation analysis for carcass traits in a Duroc pig population

Abstract Background Carcass traits are important in pig breeding programs for improving pork production. Understanding the genetic variants underlies complex phenotypes can help explain trait variation in pigs. In this study, we integrated a weighted single-step genome-wide association study (wssGWA...
