Selective sweep analysis reveals extensive parallel selection traits between large white and Duroc pigs
Abstract In the process of pig genetic improvement, different commercial breeds have been bred for the same purpose, improving meat production. Most of the economic traits, such as growth and fertility, have been selected similarly despite the discrepant selection pressure, which is known as paralle...
