Genome-Wide Association Study Pinpoints Novel Candidate Genes Associated with the Gestation Length of the First Parity in French Large White Sows

Genome-Wide Association Study Pinpoints Novel Candidate Genes Associated with the Gestation Length of the First Parity in French Large White Sows

Gestation length (GL) is a critical indicator of reproductive performance in sows and is closely associated with other reproductive traits, such as total number born (TNB) and number born alive (NBA). Despite its importance, the genetic mechanisms underlying GL and its impact on reproductive traits...
