Genome Selection and Genome-Wide Association Analyses for Litter Size Traits in Large White Pigs

Genome Selection and Genome-Wide Association Analyses for Litter Size Traits in Large White Pigs

(1) Background: Litter size traits are critical for pig breeding efficiency but pose challenges due to low heritability and sex-limited influences. This study aimed to elucidate the genetic architecture and identify candidate genes for these traits in Large White pigs using genomic selection (GS) an...
