The paper presents a high-quality wisent genome assembly, identifies a deletion inactivating the THRSP gene, and shows its absence in bison compared to cattle and water buffalo.

This study performs genome-wide association analysis for haemorrhagic bowel syndrome in Swiss Large White pigs but finds no significant genetic variants associated with the disease.

The paper compares two multi-trait association methods and fine-maps six QTL in pigs, finding similar results between methods but highlighting potential missed QTL in multi-trait analyses.

The paper characterizes a haplotype-reference panel for low-pass sequencing genotyping in Swiss Large White pigs, showing high concordance with microarray genotypes and significant genetic differentiation between lines.

The paper identifies an intronic deletion in DNAH17 causing infertility in pigs due to defective sperm flagella by disrupting splicing and axoneme assembly.

The paper identifies a 63-bp insertion in the KIF21A gene as the causal mutation for arthrogryposis multiplex congenita in pigs.
