aFCR, Feed conversion ratio; ADG, Average daily gain; ADFI, Average daily feed intake; RFI, Residual feed intake. ba = linear model GWAS (LM-GWAS), b = single-step GWAS (ssGWAS). cRegion (Mb) = the merging of neighbored significant SNPs. dN = Number of significant SNPs in the region. eQTL region (Mb) = The QTL regions reported in Pig QTLdb. Values in bold had an overlap region with QTLs for FE related traits in Pig QTLdb.
