Integrative pigGTEx resource with GWAS reveals genetic mechanism underlying semen quality in boars
This study reveals the genetic basis and regulatory mechanisms underlying semen quality traits in Duroc boars, identifying key candidate genes such as DCAF12 and ZSCAN9. These findings provide important insight into the genetic regulation of semen quality in boars.
