Discovery of Potential Candidate Genes for Coat Colour in Wuzhishan Pigs by Integrating SNPs and mRNA Expression Analysis

Discovery of Potential Candidate Genes for Coat Colour in Wuzhishan Pigs by Integrating SNPs and mRNA Expression Analysis

Despite identifying genes regulating the coat colour in Western pig breeds, the genetic basis of the coat colour in Chinese indigenous pigs is still not understood due to the diversity of indigenous breeds and their genetic differences from exotic pigs. In this study, 215 Wuzhishan pigs with three c...
