A natural knockout of the MYO7A gene leads to pre‐weaning mortality in pigs
The pig breeding system provides a unique framework to study recessive defects and the consequence on the phenotype. We examined a commercial synthetic Duroc population for recessive defects and identified a haplotype on chromosome 9 significantly affecting pre‐weaning mortality. To identify the cau...
