Identification of QTL-by-Environment Interaction by Controlling Polygenic Background Effect

This paper introduces a linear mixed model to detect QTL-by-environment interactions by controlling polygenic background effects, showing improved power over existing methods in both simulations and rice and barley data.

Identifying long non-coding RNAs and characterizing their functional roles in swine mammary gland from colostrogenesis to lactogenesis

The paper identifies differentially expressed lncRNAs in swine mammary glands during colostrogenesis to lactogenesis and suggests their potential roles in parturition and colostrum formation.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals thoracolumbar vertebra heterogeneity and rib-genesis in pigs

This study uses single-cell RNA-sequencing to analyze thoracolumbar vertebra and rib primordium development in pigs, identifying cell types and gene expression dynamics involved in osteogenesis and angiogenesis.
