Genome-wide association analysis and functional annotation of positional candidate genes for feed conversion efficiency and growth rate in pigs
Feed conversion efficiency is a measure of how well an animal converts feed into live weight and it is typically expressed as feed conversion ratio (FCR). FCR and related traits like growth rate (e.g. days to 110 kg—D110) are of high interest for animal breeders, farmers and society due to implicati...
