Characterization of bacterial microbiota compositions along the intestinal tract in pigs and their interactions and functions
(Springer Nature, 2018-08-28)
In addition to its value in meat production, the pig is an interesting animal model for human digestive tract studies due to its physiological similarities. The aim of this study was to describe the ...
Using genome wide association studies to identify common QTL regions in three different genetic backgrounds based on Iberian pig breed
(PLoS ONE, 2018-03-09)
One of the major limitation for the application of QTL results in pig breeding and QTN identification has been the limited number of QTL effects validated in different animal material. The aim
of the ...
Expression analysis of candidate genes for fatty acid composition in adipose tissue and identifcation of regulatory regions
(Nature Research, 2018-02-01)
The aim of this work was to study the genetic basis of the backfat expression of lipid-related genes
associated with meat quality traits in pigs. We performed a genome-wide association study with ...
