“…In the last two centuries, a common strategy was to maximize pig farming profitability of highly productive commercial breeds (such as Large White, Landrace, and Duroc) with high growth rates, good feed conversion and increased lean meat yield (Wang et al, 2018). As a result, these breeds became popular worldwide, including in the Russian Federation (Traspov et al, 2016c;Traspov et al, 2016a;Traspov et al, 2016b;Čandek Potokar et al, 2019;Čandek Potokar & Nieto, 2019).…”

Breeding practices adopted at different farms are aimed at maximizing the profitability of pig farming. In this work, we have analyzed the genetic diversity of Large White pigs in Russia. We compared genomes of historic and modern Large White Russian breeds using 271 pig samples. We have identified 120 candidate regions associated with the differentiation of modern and historic pigs and analyzed genomic differences between the modern farms. The identified genes were associated with height, fitness, conformation, reproductive performance, and meat quality.
