Genome-wide association studies for production, respiratory disease, and immune-related traits in Landrace pigs

Abstract Identification of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) related to a chronic respiratory disease such as Mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine (MPS) and immune-related traits is important for the genetic improvement of disease resistance in pigs. The objective of this study was to detect a novel QTL fo...
