Endometrial gene expression profile of pregnant sows with extreme phenotypes for reproductive efficiency.
Scientific reports ·doi:10.1038/srep14416

Prolificacy can directly impact porcine profitability, but large genetic variation and low heritability have been found regarding litter size among porcine breeds. To identify key differences in gene expression associated to swine reproduct…

Analysis of porcine MUC4 gene as a candidate gene for prolificacy QTL on SSC13 in an Iberian × Meishan F2 population.
BMC genetics ·doi:10.1186/1471-2156-12-93

BackgroundReproductive traits, such as prolificacy, are of great interest to the pig industry. Better understanding of their genetic architecture should help to increase the efficiency of pig productivity through the implementation of marke…
