Trait associations across genomic regions analyzed by SNP-based and haplotype-based genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Each row represents a trait, and each column, a genomic region containing SNPs that are genome-wide suggestively or significantly associated with a trait. Only traits with at least one associated SNP and SNPs associated with at least one trait are shown. Each summary shows the results of growth traits (a) carcass traits (b) and meat quality traits (c). SSC, Sus scrofa chromosome; DG, Average daily gain; LEA, Ultrasound loin muscle area; BF, Ultrasound backfat thickness; HEIGHT, Height at withers; FW, Front width; CW, Chest width; CD, Chest depth; CC, Circumference of chest; CCB at F(/R) 30(/105), Circumference of cannon bone at front (/Rear) (at 30 kg/105 kg); SCORE at F(/R) 30(/105), Front (/Rear) leg score at 30 kg (/105 kg); CL, Carcass length; CL1, Carcass length I; CL2, Carcass length II; CL3, Carcass length III; CT, Carcass thickness; TVN, Thoracic vertebrae number; LVN, Lumbar vertebrae number; BSFT, Subcutaneous fat thickness (Back); LSFT, Subcutaneous fat thickness (Loin); 45r, carcass cross section at fourth–fifth rib; HBL, carcass cross section at half-body length; LEA at 45r, Longissimus muscle area at 45r; LEA at HBL, Longissimus muscle area at HBL; IFA at 45r, Intermuscular fat area at 45r; ALLFA at 45r, All fat area of 45r; SFA at HBL, Subcutaneous fat area at HBL; IFA at HBL, Intermuscular fat area at HBL; ALLFA at HBL, All fat area at HBL; MOS, Moisture; IMF, Intramuscular fat; PROT, Protein; COOK, Cooking loss; WHC, Centrifugal water-holding capacity; SF, Shear force value; M-a*, Redness of longissimus muscle; M-b*, Yellowness of longissimus muscle; F-L*, Lightness of subcutaneous fat; F-a*, Redness of subcutaneous fat; F-b*, Yellowness of subcutaneous fat
