High-resolution association mapping of number of teats in pigs reveals regions controlling vertebral development
BACKGROUND: Selection pressure on the number of teats has been applied to be able to provide enough teats for the increase in litter size in pigs. Although many QTL were reported, they cover large chromosomal regions and the functional mutations and their underlying biological mechanisms have not ye...
