Antioxidant activity of NAC restores follicular development and reproductive defects caused by GGT1-deletion
Objective: The litter size of sow was controlled by complicated physiological mechanisms and the ovulation rate is the most important component of litter size trait. We aimed to identify differentially expressed mRNAs in Large White and Meishan pigs (completed by BGI company). Methods: We selected the preovulatory follicle tissue of three Large White and three Meishan pigs as experimental materials to do the transcriptome sequencing. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway-based approaches were used to investigate biological functions and signaling pathways affected by the differentially expressed mRNAs.
