Bioinformatics approach to Boar Taint
Meat products obtained from intact male pigs often produce offensive smell or odour which is recognized as a complex genetic trait called boar taint.Androstenone and Skatole in the fat primarily cause boar taint. Metabolism of androstenone and sex steroids share a common pathway which makes ...Tags: Sequencing, DNA, Whole genome re-sequencing, Boar taint, androstenone, skatole, pig, QTL, SNP, haplotype, fine mapping, SSC
