Identifying Selection Signatures for Backfat Thickness in Yorkshire Pigs Highlights New Regions Affecting Fat Metabolism

Identifying the genetic basis of improvement in pigs contributes to our understanding of the role of artificial selection in shaping the genome. Here we employed the Cross Population Extended Haplotype Homozogysity (XPEHH) and the Wright’s fixation index (F(ST)) methods to detect trait-specific sele...
