- Abstract
A way to increase the pork production that was restricted by the natural resources and diseases is to increase the reproductive capability of swine. The pork marketed in Taiwan is dominated by the LYD crossbred pigs. The reproductive traits of Landrace and Duroc sows were studied via GWAS. Sows of which TNB are within top 15% and last 15% were selected and the genomic DNA samples were prepared. The Axiom Porcine Breeders Genotyping Array from Thermo Fisher Scientific was chosen for the studies. After assessing the accuracy and reproducibility of the chips, we are trying to primitively explore the possible SNP candidates associating to the reproductive traits.
