The paper performs a multi-breed meta-GWAS in pigs to identify genomic regions associated with complex traits and integrates with PigGTEx to prioritize variant-gene-tissue-trait circuits.

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.

The paper presents PigGTEx, a resource linking genetic variants to transcriptomic phenotypes in pigs, showing pigs' similarity to humans in gene regulation and complex traits.

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