tailieunhanh - Identification of gene co-expression clusters in liver tissues from multiple porcine populations with high and low backfat androstenone phenotype

Boar taint is principally caused by accumulation of androstenone and skatole in adipose tissues. Studies have shown high heritability estimates for androstenone whereas skatole production is mainly dependent on nutritional factors. Androstenone is a lipophilic steroid mainly metabolized in liver. |
