Multiple‐trait genomic prediction for swine meat quality traits using gut microbiome features as a correlated trait

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 1, Page 102-117, January 2025.
Abstract Traits such as meat quality and composition are becoming valuable in modern pork production; however, they are difficult to include in genetic evaluations because of the high phenotyping costs. Combining genomic information with multiple‐trait indirect selection with cheaper indicator traits is an alternative for continued cost‐effective ...
