Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals genes regulating myogenesis and adipogenesis in Laiwu pigs over four developmental stages

We performed transcriptome analysis of the longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle during four development stages (60, 120, 240 and 400 days after birth) in Laiwu pigs, an indigenous fatty pig breed in North China. This study provides a reference for exploring transcriptome regulation mechanisms affecting muscle growth and development in obese pigs. Overall design: Examination of transcriptional variation over four different development stages in Laiwu pig.
