The pig reference population used in this study was initiated with two founder pigs. They were a Landrace boar and a Yorkshire sow. The backcross and intercross progeny were produced by mating the animals from the founder and F1 generations. Subsequent generations were produced by advanced backcross and sib-mating. A total of 253 pigs were included in this study. BFT was measured for each individual at slaughter.
