Genome‑wide study refines the quantitative trait locus for number of ribs in a Large White × Minzhu intercross pig population and reveals a new candidate gene

TL;DR: LTBP2, which encodes a latent transforming growth factor beta binding protein, was previously reported to indirectly regulate the activity of growth differentiation factor Gdf11, which has been shown to increase the number of ribs in knock-out mice, is proposed as a good new candidate gene for number of rib number in the pig population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide identification of RNA editing in seven porcine tissues by matched DNA and RNA high-throughput sequencing.

TL;DR: The functional analysis of the genes with tissue-specific editing sites in each tissue revealed that RNA editing might play important roles in tissue function, and further evidence supporting a previous observation that pig transcriptomes are highly editable at PRE-1 elements is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

The landscape of chromatin accessibility in skeletal muscle during embryonic development in pigs

TL;DR: This work indicates that chromatin accessibility plays an important regulatory role in the embryonic muscle development of pigs and regulates the temporal and spatial expression patterns of key genes in muscle development by influencing the binding of transcription factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-Wide Association Analysis Identified BMPR1A as a Novel Candidate Gene Affecting the Number of Thoracic Vertebrae in a Large White × Minzhu Intercross Pig Population.

TL;DR: The study uncovered that regulation variants in FOS on SSC7 and in BMPR1A on S SC14 might play important roles in controlling the NTV, and thus these genetic factors may be harnessed for increasing the N TV in pigs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic variants associated with the number and diameter of muscle fibers in pigs as revealed by a genome-wide association study

TL;DR: This study revealed some genome-wide association variants for muscle fiber characteristics, and it provides valuable information to discover the genetic mechanisms controlling these traits in pigs.
