A combined GWAS approach reveals key loci for socially-affected traits in Yorkshire pigs

Pingxian Wu and Kai Wang et al. perform single-locus and haplotype-based GWAS in Yorkshire pigs to evaluate genetic factors involved in socially affected traits, like feed intake and weight gain. These results indicate several genetic factors that may ultimately be targeted to improve livestock bree...

These results indicate several genetic factors that may ultimately be targeted to improve livestock breeding.
