Imputation-Based Whole-Genome Sequence Association Study Rediscovered the Missing QTL for Lumbar Number in Sutai Pigs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Resequencing a number of individuals of various breeds as reference population and imputing the whole-genome sequences of individuals that were genotyped with medium-density chips to perform an association study is a very efficient strategy.

Modeling the impact of control zone restrictions on pig placement in simulated African swine fever in the United States [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious viral disease that poses a significant threat to the swine industry, requiring stringent control measures, including movement restrictions that delay pig placements, impacting business continuity.

Ear, tail and skin lesions vary according to different production flows in a farrow-to-finish pig farm

open access: yesPorcine Health Management, 2019
Background Pig performance and risk of disease are associated with production flow. Given the link between health and welfare, it is likely that animal welfare indicators are also associated with production flow.

Simulation of Electron Behavior in PIG Ion Source for 9MeV Cyclotron [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
In this paper, we focus on a PIG source for producing intense H-ions inside a 9 MeV cyclotron. The properties of the PIG ion source were simulated for a variety of electric field distributions and magnetic field strengths using CST particle studio.
