Transcriptome analysis of mRNA expression in skeletal muscle of Yorkshire pigs with differential residual feed intake. Transcriptome analysis of mRNA expression in skeletal muscle of Yorkshire pigs with differential residual feed intake

Feed accounts for more than 60% of the costs for pig production, and FE can be measured as residual feed intake (RFI). In this study, we compared the transcriptome difference of longissimus dorsi muscles of Yorkshire pigs with high RFI (RFI_H) and low RFI (RFI_L) using Solexa mRNA sequencing.
