Refined localization of the FAT1 quantitative trait locus on pig chromosome 4 by marker-assisted backcrossing

BACKGROUND: A major QTL for fatness and growth, denoted FAT1, has previously been detected on pig chromosome 4q (SSC4q) using a Large White – wild boar intercross. Progeny that carried the wild boar allele at this locus had higher fat deposition, shorter length of carcass, and reduced growth. The po...
