Genome-wide search for copy number variations associated with blood parameters in Large White pigs by M. A. Kolosova, L. V. Getmantseva, S. Yu. Bakoev, A. Yu. Kolosov

“…However, few studies have focused on the associations of CNVs with blood parameters, which could help identify subtle mechanisms underlying the physiological regulation of phenotypes associated with health and selection-important traits. The aim of this work was to identify CNVs associated with alanine aminotransferase (ALT), urea (Urea), red blood cell (RBC) and white blood cell (WBC) counts in Large White pigs and to identify candidate genes that may be considered as genetic markers in hematopoietic functions, physiological processes and productivity phenotypes. …”
