TEIXEIRA, F. R. F.; NASCIMENTO, M.; NASCIMENTO, A. C. C.; SILVA, F. F. e; CRUZ, C. D.; AZEVEDO, C. F.; PAIXÃO, D. M.; BARROSO, L. M. A.; VERARDO, L. L.The aim of the present study was to propose and evaluate the use of factor analysis (FA) in obtaining latent variables (factors) that represent a set of pig traits simultaneously, for use in genome-wide selection (GWS) studies. We used crosses between outbred F2 populations of Brazilian Piau X commercial pigs. Data were obtained on 345 F2 pigs, genotyped for 237 SNPs, with 41 traits. FA allowed us to obtain fou...
