By capturing molecular complexity across biological layers, integrative omics offers new opportunities to reveal the regulatory mechanisms underlying economically important traits.

For that, we integrated gene expression data, co-expression networks, expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping, single-nucleotide polymorphism\u00a0(SNP)\u2013phenotype associations, chromatin accessibility, and transcription factor motif analyses using hepatic RNA-seq data from 90 animals and assay for transposase\u2011accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) data from two animals.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) identified 10 gene modules associated with our phenotypes of interest, particularly the blue module (\n                      <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009\u22120.4), which is linked to meat color and enriched in insulin and mTOR signaling pathways. eQTL mapping revealed 1,198\n                      <jats:italic>cis<\/jats:italic>\n                      - and 39,227\n                      <jats:italic>trans-<\/jats:italic>\n                      eQTLs (false discovery rate [FDR]\u2009&lt;\u20090.05), including hotspots on chromosome 25.
