Large scale genome-wide association and LDLA mapping study identifies QTLs for boar taint and related sex steroids
BACKGROUND: Boar taint is observed in a high proportion of uncastrated male pigs and is characterized by an unpleasant odor/flavor in cooked meat, primarily caused by elevated levels of androstenone and skatole. Androstenone is a steroid produced in the testis in parallel with biosynthesis of other...
