  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Animals were Polish Large White or synthetic line pigs (derived from crossing Polish Large White Duroc, Hampshire, and three lines of Landrace).
     Breeds associated:
    Design:Animals were genotyped for four SNPs and one indel in SCD and analyzed for production traits.
    Analysis:The general linear model procedure was used.
    Software:R software, SAS

    Title:Transcript abundance of the pig stearoyl-CoA desaturase gene has no effect on fatty acid composition in muscle and fat tissues, but its polymorphism within the putative microRNA target site is associated with daily body weight gain and feed conversion ratio
