The number of ribs (NRs) and the carcass length (CL) are important economic traits. traits usually measured after slaughter. To improve prediction performance genomic selection (GS) for NRs CL, one strategy is to integrate significant loci identified from whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data by genome-wide association study (GWAS) into (GP) model. This investigated GP different best linear unbiased (GBLUP) Bayesian models using chip genotype data, imputed WGS (iWGS) modeling single-nucleotide...
Abstract The number of ribs (NR) and carcass length (CL) are important economic traits in pig breeding programs. Pigs with a higher NR longer CL produce greater pork yields. In the present study, Suhuai pigs phenotypes were genotyped using Neogen ® GGP Porcine 80 K SNP array to identify QTL affecting dissect candidate genes for two traits. SNP‐chip data was imputed whole‐genome sequence (iWGS) increase probability identifying causal variants. Through genome‐wide association studies (GWAS)...
Chinese indigenous pig breeds in the Taihu Lake (TL) region of Eastern China are well documented by their exceptional prolificacy. There seven this including Meishan (MS), Erhualian (EHL), Jiaxing Black (JXB), Fengjing (FJ), Shawutou (SWT), Mi (MI), and Hongdenglong (HDL). At present, these facing a great threat population decline, inbreeding depression lineage admixture since Western commercial pigs have dominated industry. To provide better conservation strategies identify candidate genes...
Vulvar size and angle are meaningful traits in pig production. Sows with abnormal vulva generally show reproductive disorders. In order to excavate candidate loci genes associated pig’s vulvar traits, 270 Suhuai pigs phenotype were genotyped by a porcine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) Chip. Then, Chip data imputed using resequenced of 30 as reference panel. Next, we estimated the heritability performed genome-wide association study (GWAS) for traits. The heritabilities length (VL),...
