DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2020.117514
Abstract: AIMS Pigs are increasingly used as human metabolic disease models; however, there is insufficient research on breed-related genetic background differences. This study aimed to investigate the differential metabolic responses to high-fat and high-cholesterol (HFC) diet-induced… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/19768354.2022.2141316
Abstract: ABSTRACT Although conserving native pig breeds is important in Korea, research on the genomic aspects to identify breed-specific variations in native pig breeds is uncommon. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can be a powerful source for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/age.12771
Abstract: Autochthonous pig breeds are usually reared in extensive or semi-extensive production systems that might facilitate contact with wild boars and, thus, reciprocal genetic exchanges. In this study, we analysed variants in the melanocortin 1 receptor… read more here.
