Genomic Signatures Underlying Environmental Adaptation and Reproductive Traits in the Tibetan Pig
This study provides a chromosome-level genome assembly of a male Tibetan pig (generated from stLFR and ONT data), and, through whole-genome resequencing of 124 Tibetan sows, identifies key genetic factors underlying Tibetan pigs' environmental adaptability and reproductive limitations, enabling genomic strategies to enhance breeding efficiency while preserving adaptive traits.
