Abstract:Sow fertility is an economically important quantitative trait. Hundreds of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) containing tens of thousands of potential candidate genes are excavated. However, among these genes, non‐coding RNAs including long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are often overlooked. Here, it is reported that NORSF is a novel causal lncRNA for sow fertility traits in QTLs. QTLs are characterized for sow fertility traits at the genome‐wide level and identified 4,630 potential candidate lncRNAs, with 13 differe… Show more
