Short summary
The Large White (LW) pig is a valuable breed in the pig industry, known for its growth efficiency and reproductive performance. We identified a fragment of the Danish LW runs of homozygosity (ROH). We then calculated inbreeding coefficients and screened candidate genes from the ROH archipelago for economically important traits. Our results provide useful insights into the function of ROH on a genetic basis and their role in controlling superior traits in Danish LW pigs.
