Analysis of merged transcriptomic and genomic datasets to identify genes and pathways underlying residual feed intake in growing pigs

Abstract Improvement of feed efficiency (FE) in pigs is an important milestone in order to reduce the economic and environmental impact of pig production.The goal of finding biomarkers for FE has persisted for decades.However, due to the complexity of the FE trait, these Setting Blocks goals have still not been met.Here, we search for quantitative
