Retrotransposon Insertion Polymorphisms (RIPs) in Pig Coat Color Candidate Genes.

Furthermore, we found most of the confirmed SVs related to SINE insertion or deletion, while ERV only represented one RIP site (Table 2), which is generally agreed with our previous studies, where SINEs are deduced as the major sources of retrotransposon-derived SVs in the pig genome [[58]], although LINE, LTR, and SINE accounted for 18.52%, 7.56%, and 11.05% of the pig genome, respectively [[32]].
