Chen, L., Islam K., Li, C., Vinsky, M.
A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promoter region of oxidized low density lipoprotein (lectin-like) receptor 1 (OLR1) (c. −495 T>C) was identified and analyzed for associations with 10 traits related to growth, feed efficiency, body fat deposition and carcass merit traits in hybrid...

Squires, J. J., Moore, S., Stothard, P., Swanson, K. C., Miller, S. P., Abo-Ismail, M. K., Vander Voort, G., Liao, X., Plastow, G., Mandell, I. B.
Background This study was conducted to: (1) identify new SNPs for residual feed intake (RFI) and performance traits within candidate genes identified in a genome wide association study (GWAS); (2) estimate the proportion of variation in RFI explained by the detected SNPs; (3) estimate the...
