Analyses of pig genomes provide insight into porcine demography and evolution

Martien A. M. Groenen, +141 more
- 15 Nov 2012 - 
TL;DR: The assembly and analysis of the genome sequence of a female domestic Duroc pig and a comparison with the genomes of wild and domestic pigs from Europe and Asia reveal a deep phylogenetic split between European and Asian wild boars ∼1 million years ago.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regions of homozygosity in the porcine genome: consequence of demography and the recombination landscape.

TL;DR: An in-depth study of genomic variation based on three different parameters: nucleotide diversity outside ROHs, the number of R OHs in the genome, and the average ROH size, which shows an unequal genomic ROH distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pig Domestication and Human-Mediated Dispersal in Western Eurasia Revealed through Ancient DNA and Geometric Morphometrics

TL;DR: The first genetic signatures of early domestic pigs in the Near Eastern Neolithic core zone are revealed and it is demonstrated that these early pigs differed genetically from those in western Anatolia that were introduced to Europe during the Neolithic expansion.
