A bi-dimensional genome scan for prolificacy traits in pigs shows the existence of multiple epistatic QTL
BACKGROUND: Prolificacy is the most important trait influencing the reproductive efficiency of pig production systems. The low heritability and sex-limited expression of prolificacy have hindered to some extent the improvement of this trait through artificial selection. Moreover, the relative contri...
