Revealing new candidate genes for reproductive traits in pigs: combining Bayesian GWAS and functional pathways

BACKGROUND: Reproductive traits such as number of stillborn piglets (SB) and number of teats (NT) have been evaluated in many genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Most of these GWAS were performed under the assumption that these traits were normally distributed. However, both SB and NT are discre...
