Genomic and morphometric evidence for Austronesian-mediated pig translocation in the Pacific

David W. G. Stanton, Aurélie Manin, Allowen Evin, Kristina A. Tabbada, Anna E. Linderholm, Rosie Drinkwater, Olaf Thalmann, Said Ismael Ng’ang’a, Noel Amano, Atholl Anderson, Ross Barnett, Patrick Barrière, Stuart Bedford, Peter S. Bellwood, Adam Brumm, , Laurent Frantz

The paper uses genomic and morphometric analyses to show that pigs in Wallacea and Oceania have diverse ancestries linked to Austronesian dispersal 4,000-3,000 years ago.

A gap-free telomere-to-telomere pig reference genome provides insight in centromere evolution and breed-specific selection

Dong Li, Yulong Wang, Tiantian Yuan, Xiang Li, Yu Quan, Wansheng Liu, Kyle M. Schachtschneider, Lawrence B. Schook, Richard P. M. A. Crooijmans, Martien A. M. Groenen, Martijn F. L. Derks, Taiyong Yu

The paper assembles a gap-free telomere-to-telomere pig genome, revealing new genes, structural variations, and insights into centromere evolution and breed-specific selection.

Epigenetic clock and DNA methylation analysis of porcine models of aging and obesity

Kyle M. Schachtschneider, Lawrence B. Schook, Jennifer J. Meudt, Dhanansayan Shanmuganayagam, Joseph Alan Zoller, Amin Haghani, Caesar Z. Li, Joshua Zhang, Andrew X. Yang, Ken Raj, Steve Horvath

The paper develops epigenetic clocks for pigs and identifies methylation differences between domestic and minipigs, linking them to obesity and aging-related genes.
