Exploring genomic regions regulating the liver transcriptome and energy homeostasis in pigs.
In pigs, energy homeostasis has an impact on meat quality and health. In a Duroc pig population, 30 quantitative trait locus (QTL) regions associated with fatty acid (FA) composition in adipose tissue, plasma, liver and muscle were previously identified. Mapping of expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) regions wil...
