TL;DR: Physiological changes between HQ and LQ meats according to the proteome profiles are revealed and some differentially expressed proteins suggested that the levels of oxidative stress and apoptosis were lower in HQ meats than in L Q meats.

TL;DR: F ROH can be used to accurately assess individual inbreeding levels compared to other inbreeding coefficient estimators and can provide an alternative to inbreeding estimates in the absence of pedigree records.

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.

TL;DR: The key microRNAs and genes associated with pig backfat deposition were detected and characterized using RNA sequencing between adipose tissues of high- backfat and low-backfat pigs to improve the current understanding of the molecular genetic mechanisms of subcutaneous fat deposition in pigs.

TL;DR: The livers of IUGR piglets were associated with a series of complications, including inflammatory stress and immune dysregulation; cytoskeleton and membrane structure disorganization; dysregulated transcription events; and abnormal glucocorticoid metabolism, and these results reveal the sex-biased developmental dynamics between male and female IUGr piglets.
