Examining the Genetic Background of Porcine Muscle Growth and Development Based on Transcriptome and miRNAome Data

Recently, selection in pigs has been focused on improving the lean meat content in carcasses; this focus has been most evident in breeds constituting a paternal component in breeding. Such sire-breeds are used to improve the meat quantity of cross-breed pig lines. However, even in one breed, a signi...
