The existing well-known Meishan pig population has been categorized into medium sized (MMS), and small sized (SMS) based on body size, which is a result of artificial selection. MMS is relatively large in all body size traits, but otherwise have highly similar appearance and performance traits. To effectively identify the candidate selected genes that contribute to the body size variation in Meishan pigs, this study collected individuals from all lineages of MMS and SMS for re-sequencing. Additionally, femoral cartilage and liver transcription data were collected from MMS and SMS, respectively, and re-sequencing data from pig breeds exhibiting varying body sizes were also analyzed. Through multi-omics analysis, it was discovered that the missense mutation c.575T > C in the candidate causal gene NR6A1 was positively selected in MMS only, leading to an increase in the body length of MMS at 6 months of age. Moreover, the selected genes RSAD2-CMPK2 and COL3A1 were found to be significantly greater expressed in SMS femoral cartilage and liver tissues compared with MMS. These genes could potentially strengthen bone resorption and metabolism-related pathways in SMS. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying body size variation in Meishan pigs and Chinese indigenous pigs.
