Identification and validation of a regulatory mutation upstream of the BMP2 gene associated with carcass length in pigs

BACKGROUND: Carcass length is very important for body size and meat production for swine, thus understanding the genetic mechanisms that underly this trait is of great significance in genetic improvement programs for pigs. Although many quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been detected in pigs, very...
