Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping for Porcine Backfat Thickness

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2002
A partial genome scan using porcine microsatellites was carried out to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) for backfat thickness (BFT) in a pig reference population. This population carried QTL on chromosomes 1, 13 and 18. The QTL on chromosome 1 was located between marker loci S0113 and SW1301.

Enhancing Meat Quality Through Dietary Fiber: Insights Into the Gut Microbiota‐Derived Short‐Chain Fatty Acids‐Muscle Axis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

Detection of quantitative trait loci for backfat thickness and intramuscular fat content in pigs (Sus scrofa) [PDF]

, 1999
In an experimental cross between Meishan and Dutch Large White and Landrace lines, 619 F(2) animals and their parents were typed for molecular markers covering the entire porcine genome.

The traits of backfat thickness and kidney fat in BH and BL.

, 2015
The three traits are backfat thickness of live animals (a), backfat thickness of carcass (b) and weight of kidney fat (c). BH and BL are pigs with higher/lower thickness backfat of live using B-Ultrasound respectively.

Integrated Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveals the Genetic Basis of Phenotypic Variation in Tibetan Sheep

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
SNaPshot‐validated GWAS results demonstrated significant correlations between candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and body size traits in Tibetan sheep. Concurrently, hematoxylin and eosin staining, alongside muscle fiber analysis, confirmed pronounced morphological differences in muscle tissue between sheep of varying conformation.

Genetic Parameters for Feed Efficiency Indicator Traits in a Rotational Crossbreed Sow Population During Lactation Period

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The selection of feed efficient sows effectively converting feed into milk production and body weight gain will contribute to the overall profitability of pig farming systems. Consequently, the aim of the present study was to estimate genetic parameters for feed efficiency indicator traits during the sow lactation period, and to infer ...

Genome wide association and integrative analysis of backfat thickness in a Yorkshire pig population

Journal of Animal Science
Abstract Efficient genetic improvement of complex traits in pigs requires a deep understanding of their genetic architecture and a comprehensive catalog of molecular markers. Here, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and conditional analysis in 4,144 Yorkshire pigs, using 10.4 million imputed sequence variants and ...

Spectral Transforms as a Tool to Optimize Digital Phenotyping in Biological Images

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern livestock breeding has mastered genotyping. Genome‐wide association studies, genomic selection, and SNP arrays enable genetic merit prediction at lower cost. However, phenotyping remains the bottleneck, as manual measurement is slow, expensive, subjective, and unable to capture spatial or temporal trait organization. Digital phenotyping
